Spas are wonderful. Big electric bills are not. We believe the fun shouldn't end when the utility bill arrives, so we make sure our spas are energy efficient. While many spas claim to be fully foamed, they are often not, or use only low-density foam, resulting in a less energy efficient spa. Hot Spring® spas, by contrast, are totally insulated, not just fully foamed. The difference lies in our multiple layers of high-density, polyurethane foam. In addition, our pumps and heater are designed to deliver maximum performance using minimum energy. And our warm air induction system captures heated air generated by the jet pump and directs it into the spa's water, slowing the water's cool down rate and saving energy. Once you own a Hot Spring spa, you'll really appreciate its lower operating costs.
Calculating Your Monthly Cost
How much will it cost to operate a Hot Spring spa? That depends on the model you own, the temperature you set, your frequency of use, the mean ambient temperature and the cost of electricity where you live. To get an idea, use the energy table below, or try our Online Energy Calculator. Both present actual, documented energy consumption of a mid-sized Hot Spring spa in heavy use, based on rigorous testing conducted by Exponent, Inc., the nation's leading independent scientific and engineering firm.
Remember, your actual cost will vary based upon the model you select and your usage pattern.
