HEATING AND HYDROMASSAGE SYSTEMS ® The Hot Spot Spa uses a two-speed jet pump to operate its hydromassage jets and to circulate the spa water through the heating system (the TM ® Mallorca & La Palma are also equipped with a single speed jet pump used for jets only). The low speed mode of the pump, which is activated automatically by the control thermostat, will cause the spa water to be drawn slowly in through the filter, the heater, and into the pump. The pump, in turn, will push the water bac
