Fiberglass & Framing a hot tubLaminates of resin and fiberglass are applied to achieve an overall thickness of 50 - 100% more than the industry average. The first laminate is the most critical. Bonding the two surfaces together to make them one. It is a specialty resin called vinyl ester which bonds the two together both chemically and mechanically. It will also act as a corrosion and vapor barrier to guard against delimitation and blistering. By fiber glassing the frame to the hot tubs shell we unitize the wood frame and spa shell to make the full support package of the above ground spa. Many hot tub manufacturers no longer support their spas with a frame. They simply set the spa shell in the wood cabinet and fill it full of foam. Doing this eliminates the frame and also foams over 200 – 300 plumbing parts and connections. Urethane foam is the best insulation material available to date; but it is a weak structural material and costs much less than the fiberglass, resin and construction that we use. See al list of reviewed hot tubs at Islands Hot Tubs Plumbing & Insulation for the jets At our next station we trim off the edge of the spa and drill in the holes for the water & air jets, suctions, skimmers, controls, etc. We install all of the plumbing & equipment to carry the water and air for therapy & relaxation. Both water jet and air jet therapy are available on our hot tubs; many manufacturers do not offer both types. Air jets agitate the water all around you providing general non-specific therapy & relaxation. Water jets point to a specific area of the body and thus provide specific relaxation and therapy. Our water jets are individually adjustable for flow and intensity, giving each user a wide variety of therapy features. We put one inch of insulation on the hot tub shell. This is the equivalent to 4 inches of fiberglass insulation or 2½ inches of high density polystyrene which is what all hot tub covers are made out of. Providing plenty of insulation for even the coldest environments. We use only Waterway Pumps - One of the best in quality. Supplying water pumps and water support devices for the industry for the last 25 years. - Article compliments of aloha hot tubs |
