ARCTIC INSULATION

Each Arctic Spa comes with our Premier Heatlock® Insulation system, designed to minimize heat loss and to maximize energy efficiency.

We apply high density urethane foam to the floor, cabinet walls and the underside of the spa rim. In combination with the spas's sturdy construction, this creates an insulating air space. This means that incidental heat from the heaters and pumps is directed inward through the shell instead of outward, thereby decreasing heating costs by capturing and transferring this ambient heat to the spa water. It also acts as a sound barrier, so you can enjoy your Arctic Spa without being disturbed by mechanical noise from the pumps and motor and allows easy access for servicing and upgrading your spa.

The Perimeter Heatlock system also means protection against freezing in subzero temperatures. If power to your spa is interrupted, heat from the spa water slowly transfers back to the air space, protecting the plumbing and equipment from freezing.

The theory of insulation works the same for spas as it does for houses. House A illustrates the proper method for maximum efficiency and prevented heat loss. Unfortunately most spas are insulated like House B, with most of the insulation in the basement and the heating equipment outside! You wouldn't heat your house like this, so why your spa?

CASTCORE COVER

Our foam injection system and Mylovac™ design makes the Castcore cover highly resistant to water saturation, significantly prolonging the life of the cover. The cover extends down to the rim of the cabinet, which guarantees total insulation at the top of the spa, preventing heat loss and safeguarding against the build-up of snow and rainwater.

When not in use, the cover can be secured to the spa with lockable straps. This prevents any small children entering the spa unsupervised, and guards against harsh weather conditions and high winds.

	ARCTIC SPAS Ambient heat from pumps penetrates spa shell & heats water. In winter this heat returns to the pump area in the event of a power loss, preventing freeze-up.
	OTHER SPAS Some manufacturers place their pumps under a step, or in an insulated area where the waste heat is vented into the atmosphere, thus wasting valuable energy-and money!! This design flaw does not make sense, but many manufacturers would have you believe it's the best method--What do you believe?
