I thought I'd start a new thread about the building of my hot tub.
Specs:
-Inground Round spa
-6 ft. diameter
-3 ft. total depth
-375 gallons
-28 sq. ft. surface area
-vinyl liner
-2" foam board insulation
-Jets, unsure, depends on GPM required by each(so far 2 jets)
-2 main bottom drains(no skimmer)
-2" PVC pipe - 35' between pump and spa
-1 530 GPH cart filter(circulator)
-1 1 HP AG pump(30 GPM) - shared with pool
-100 lb. sand filter - shared with pool
-160 sq. ft. Solar heat - shared with pool
-1 12 amp elec. leaf blower(to power the bubbles
The dig has started... Pics will soon follow.
I have a plumbing questions though. Where should the air be introduced to the water? Should I run a seperate 2" line over to the spa and inject the air just before each jet or can I just inject the air after the heater by the equip. pad? The run from the equip. to the spa is about 35 ft. I plan to run the pipe in a circle around the spa backrest with a Tee for each jet.
Thanks,
Adam
