Title: Re: Hot tubs/Spas
Post by PlanesPete on Jun 3rd, 2009 at 3:49pm
As a different approach, I bought one on ebay for buttons and brought it over on a trailer. Many purchasers in the UK have discovered that the British weather doesn't really suit it and are selling them off very cheaply. Probably best to wait till late autumn tho'. I know someone with a lorry who would bring one over for around €500.

As they are very heavy on electricity I'm connecting mine up to use the heat from my (water cooled) generator with heat exchangers on the water jacket and the exhaust. While the genny is producing 3KW to run the pumps and charge my batteries I should be getting about 10KW of 'free' heat into the tub. When the tub is warm enough I'll send the heat to the pool. I'll keep you all posted on progress.
