- There are quite a number of valves you can choose from to help you control the water flow into your hot tub. There are ball valves, slicer valves and multi port valves that can be used for your tub.
- Suction pulls in the water that is recycled and blown back into the tub in the jet streams that you see and feel when you sit in your hot tub
