Circulation
High-Density Foam Insulation

Multiple layers of the same, high-density polyurethane foam used in commercial freezers insulate the spa shell to help lock in heat.

High-Density Foam Insulation


FiberCor® Insulation

This exclusive insulation fills the cabinet completely with a density four times greater than the half-pound foam used in most spas.

FiberCor® Insulation


Hot Spring Spa Covers

Custom-fit covers ensure a tight seal to lock in heat. Dense foam cores and an exclusive hinge seal increase insulating ability for additional energy efficiency.

Hot Spring Spa Covers


Insulated Base Pan

Structural ribbing on the bottom of Highlife Collection spas increases energy efficiency by creating insulating air space and minimizing contact with cold ground.

Energy Cost

All models meet or exceed stringent California Energy Commission (CEC) and APSP 14 energy efficiency standards for portable spas. Actual energy costs depend on spa model, usage, temperature and other factors, but you can use the table below to estimate actual energy cost of a mid-sized Highlife Collection spa in heavy use.

Details

1* Based on average ambient outside temperatures in 2022

2* Based on a medium-sized Highlife Collection spa set at 39°C with filtration on and jets off. Testing conducted by independent third-party certified laboratory in a controlled environmental chamber at multiple ambient temperatures using continuous data acquisition monitoring of watts, temperature and humidity, with all equipment calibrated to ensure data accuracy. Individual energy consumption will vary depending on set water temperature, actual consumer usage patterns, and actual environmental ambient conditions.

3* Based on a medium-sized Highlife Collection spa set at 39°C used six times per week – 15 minutes with jets on and 15 minutes with jets off during each use. Testing conducted by independent third-party certified laboratory in a controlled environmental chamber at multiple ambient temperatures using continuous data acquisition monitoring of watts, temperature and humidity, with all equipment calibrated to ensure data accuracy. Individual energy consumption will vary depending on set water temperature, actual consumer usage patterns, and actual environmental ambient conditions.
