In this video, we not only discuss an issue we had when using galvanized pipe in the presence of pool water, but also give a great overview of the system that allows us to have a hot tub that stays up to temperature!!
IN ORDER TO DO THIS, our system diverts excess power to the heating elements and when the generator is running the elements are turned on at full power to make the most use of the diesel fuel being burnt.
The control system utilizes a CLICK PLC that ultimately is controlled by a productivity 1000 that is our "brain"
