What Does a Spa Circulation Pump Do

What is a Circ Pump? A Circ Pump is a low-flow pump that comes standard on most hot tubs carried by The Spa and Sauna Co. A Circ Pump keeps the water in a hot tub circulating at all times. This is done so the water inside the hot tub is being filtered, heated, and treated with sanitizer 24/7.

Do I need a circulation pump on my hot tub?

Every hot tub needs a pump that can power the jets and circulate the water. This means it needs both high and low speeds, which are measured in revolutions per minute (RPM).

Does a hot tub circulation pump run all the time?

A dip in the spa can be a spontaneous event whenever the mood strikes. Since your hot tub pump circulates the warm water as well as the sanitizer, a general rule is to follow manufacturer recommendations or leave the pump on for a minimum of eight hours per day.
