When choosing a whirlpool, consider your reasons for purchasing and your installation design. There are many models available that feature strong hydrotherapy jets, pulsating neck jets, and adjustable lumbar jets with volume control. Some models offer invigorating systems that massage up and down your back in rapid succession. The amount of horsepower the pump is equipped with becomes more important as the tub gets larger, with some pumps offering up to 2 HP on 6-foot whirlpools. An integral heater that will maintain the water temperature while the motor is running, and other features such as safety grip rails, pump location, the number and placement of the jets, and convenient armrests are some other important considerations.
