How
much hot water is needed for my spa / bath ?
As a rule of thumb, the capacity of the hot water
service required to operate a spa bath should be based on
50% of the operating capacity of the bath or spa bath.
e.g. charisma spa
bath 220 litres operating capacity x 50% =110 litres.
This
method is subject to a number of variables i.e. the temperature
at which the bath user requires the water, the amount of
water available from the cylinder, the ambient temperature
and the amount of water required for the washing machine,
dishwasher, showering etc.
Prior
to selection of the hot water service, it is recommended
that the manufacturers of the hot water systems be contacted
to ensure that sufficient hot water will be available to
supply all requirements.
Operating
Capacity in a spa bath is determined by filling the spa
until the water level is 30 mm above the highest jet.
