After all , cleanness was always considered a sign of prosperity and health. For many years all this luxury was reserved for the wealthy and enjoyed by very few people. Even in the near past, manufacturing, operating and maintaining a decent hot tub was expensive and unreliable. With the introduction of modern materials and technologies in manufacturing, which helped in lowering of prices, hot tubs and spas have become much more popular. Today it is a widely known and accepted fact that taking hot water baths has many health benefits, like cleansing the pores of the skin and curing muscle strain.

First hot tub and spa models were made with single action jet nozzles which weren’t able to finely tune the water intensity in specific areas of the hot tub, but with the introduction of modern electronics, and high capacity pumps, manufacturers made it possible to concentrate the water stream power to specific parts of the body such as feet, knees, ankles, forearms and wrists. All this made hydrotherapy progress more intensive and its beneficial effects more affordable for people. Customized jets for hot tubs and spas, usually make all the difference between an average and exceptional model.
