You guys with this boiling thing crack me up as I was never once was talking about the water being able to boil, that is just stupid! We are talking about the inside of that cabinet. Does it continually operate above the temp of the water in the tub? If so how high? I can never seem to get a reply from any of the Arctic guys as to how the dead air space can actually contribute to the actual heating of the tub if the temp in the cabinet is below that of the water. The answer is it can't, it is actually costing more to heat the tub and the cabinet. But what do I know? I am new to this whole industry.

Right now the temp in my Arctic cabinet is 102 degrees. Its been running and reading the temp for over two hours now and the highest its gotten is 106 degrees. Oh by the way I have the heater unplugged from the pack so its just using the waste heat off the pumps while its filtrating to keep the spa at 104 degrees.

p.s. calling people stupid isnt a great way to debate, but maybe thats just me. Also saying the temp in the cabinet is 250 degrees is saying that the water is boiling in the spa.

I never explained it because youve been unwilling to listen. Basically the waste heat off the pumps that HAVE to run to filter the water is utilitized to aid the heater in heating and keeping the water warm in the spa. The pumps, heaters, packs dont have to run any longer than any other brand of spa. Actually one could argue that the heater runs less which would save money on the bill. Its not the only way building, not even saying its the best. Its the way Arctic makes it and it works VERY WELL for me and all my customers.
