Our insulation jackets for inflatable hot tubs are made with a weatherproof, flame retardant cloth and filled with 50mm of dense thermal insulation. This creates a giant blanket-like barrier around your hot tub, reducing heating time and costs by maintaining heat inside the tub. These jackets are easy to fit and can be left on the hot tub during use, thanks to the heavy-duty quick release clasps.
Not only do our insulation jackets help you operate your hot tub more sustainably and efficiently, but they also offer protection against the elements, punctures, and other damage, increasing the lifespan of your hot tub. We offer support for all popular portable hot tub makes and models. If you don't see your make and model listed or need a custom size, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Our insulation jackets are a superior choice compared to generic insulated hot tub covers on the market. Trust us to keep your hot tub warm and protected with our high-quality, energy-saving insulation jackets.
How Our Insulated Jackets Work
Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact. If the surface of the hot tub is in direct contact with a colder surface, such as the ground or air, heat will be conducted away from the hot tub and into the colder surface.
Convection is the transfer of heat through a fluid, such as air or water. If the air surrounding the hot tub is cooler than the water inside the hot tub, heat will be lost to the air through convection.
Radiation is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves. Hot tubs emit infrared radiation, which can be absorbed by the surrounding air and objects, causing heat to be lost.
An insulated jacket that wraps around the hot tub can help to reduce heat loss through all of these mechanisms. The insulation material used in the jacket acts as a barrier to heat flow, reducing the amount of heat lost through conduction and convection. The jacket also helps to reduce heat loss through radiation by reflecting some of the infrared radiation emitted by the hot tub back towards the water, rather than allowing it to be absorbed by the surrounding air and objects.
By reducing heat loss, an insulated jacket can help to save energy and reduce running costs for a hot tub. The hot tub will require less energy to maintain a given temperature, and the water will stay warm for longer periods of time, reducing the need for frequent heating.
How Is This Different from An Insulated Hot Tub Cover
An insulated hot tub cover is a cover designed to go over the top of a hot tub to help keep the heat in and prevent debris from entering the water. On the other hand, our insulated hot tub jacket is designed to wrap around the sides of a hot tub to provide additional insulation and prevent heat loss.
Both the insulated hot tub cover and jacket have the same goal of reducing heat loss and increasing energy efficiency. However, they have different levels of effectiveness and work in different ways. While the cover is primarily designed to cover the top of the hot tub, the jacket is designed to wrap around the sides of the tub.
Most thermal hot tub covers and insulated hot tub covers you will come across are not as effective as our Insulated Hot Tub Jacket and Insulated Lid. In our tests, either one alone is superior to most insulated covers you'll find on the market and with our full insulation system, you can expect up to 80% reduction in energy use and costs.
