SPA PUMPS

Hi

I want to replace my pump with a very quiet option. I do not want jets at all. Does that mean I can just use a circ pump? How fast will it heat if I do that?

I have a 4' tub, that is 3' deep

thank you

 
RE: SPA PUMPS

A cric pump is what you need.  It will heat the tub the same as a regular pump as the water will rise more in temperature from the smaller flow.  We have very energy efficient circ pumps including Laing circ pumps at http://www.cedartubsdirect.com/hot-tub-pumps-c-4.html.

How quick will it heat? from cold? from warm?   thanx
 
 
RE: RE: SPA PUMPS

That depends on the size of the heater your using.  A BTU is the amount of energy it takes to heat one cubic foot of water 1 degree F.  The pump has nothing to do with it.
