Therapy spa jets in ground spa (gunite)

[Kajung2k]

Working with PB on my pool and spa design and I wanted to put some high performance hydro therapy jets in my spa.

i searched around and found twirlybird aka paramount spa jets though I only found one thread on it and I’m looking to see who else has used them and hopefully get their take on them as well.

I will have a 6 seat spa. 4 seats will use one of their jets (shiatsu probably) and the other two seats will have 4 jets for the back and one for the calf area (5 jets each).

it will be driven with 2 - PentAir intelliflo 2 vsp (one from the pool and one dedicated to the spa). I will also have a 2hp air blower too.

your thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I am not sure so here is a bump to get more eyes on it.

I’m surprised there arent any pool owners out there using hydro therapy jets... or maybe there is a reason why we shouldn’t be using them?

Any update on what you decided for spa jets?

I’ve decided on going with the parajets but I’m disappointed that they are on back order... still.
I ordered them a few days before Thanksgiving but with the holiday, xmas, new year and covid... it seems it’s hard to get the parts I need.

Sorry to hear and hopefully that does impact your build too much .. wondering if we should order now as well or hope supplies increase next year when hopefully we break ground.

The spa jets was something I wanted so the PB asked me to purchase them. If I would have went with just “regular” jets then he would have provided them.

Not only did I go with special jets, I did 2 seats with 4 jets and then 4 more seats with 1 jet at various heights. The PB told me that each pump handles 6 jets. Since I have a total of 12 jets I had to put in a other pump.

We are limited in space for equipment so hopefully we can get decent jet setup with the IntelliFloXF VSF 022056
