Hi,
I have an old hot tub which I´m refurbishing. I´m adding new pumps and a sand filter but need to sort out the heating.
I live in a warm climate in Spain and wondered if a heat pump would be suitable as the electricity is so expensive (ie it would be cheaper due to the 4:1 cop). I haven´t seen a hot tub which uses a heat pump for heating so wondered what the down side is. The price of a heat pump is more expensive than an electric heater but I thought that in the long run the heat pump would be cheaper.
Does anyone have any views / experience with this?
Thanks in advance.
