p to operate, this compact piece of engineering can even heat

Hydromatt Hot Tub Solar Heating Kit:
The water is pumped through a multi tube collector, usually
positioned on the roof of the property, heated by the sun and
then returned to the hot tub. The temperature controller allows
you to choose the desired heat and will turn the system on or
off depending on the availability of the heat. A digital,
automatic system is currently available on the market but is
more expensive. The kit will even draw some energy on cloudy
days and is designed to fit the majority of roofs including
tile, corrugated iron, metal or fibro. This particular model is
almost immune to ultraviolet radiation and ozone and comes in
five different colours plus a range of different sizes to meet
your requirements.
Electroheat Heat Pumps: This amazing
device does not heat the water itself. It works like the
reverse cycle of an air conditioner, absorbing the heat and
then using the compressor, amplifies it through the heat
exchanger system. Probably one of the most energy saving
creations on the market today.
Applied Computer Controls Electronic Hot Tub
Control System with Heater: The system has fully
programmable controls for setting different filter cycles and
economy modes. The digital seven button LED display has a clock
built in with lights that tell you the current mode. It also
comes with a 2 year manufacturer’s
guarantee.
The choices available of hot tub
heaters are constantly evolving. One day they will
probably be the size of a peanut. The good news is
that increased popularity and demand for the hot tub can
only help bring the prices down. Imagine the relative
cost over 50 years ago? I certainly would not have been
able to afford even a hot tub heater, let alone a hot
tub!
So to
conclude this section, you have a huge selection of
different styles to choose from. Gas, electric and solar to
name but a few. New models and suppliers appear all the time
and our job is to update this website accordingly to bring you
the best choice.
