Going to get a hot tub

That heat pump. Right there.

What about it?

What about it?

Won't it be noisy and blowey?

That is the AC condenser / compressor unit. It only runs if the AC is on. Easy to turn off.

Are they that noisy? I was thinking you wouldn't hear it over the hot tub noises.

I just spent over an hour outside in the tub. Total silence other than the sound of relaxed conversation amongst the family. Unless you run the big jets on blastoff speed they are almost silent. We never run the jets. It's all about the soak.

No issue with blowing, that design blows upward through the top. If it's a 2 stage unit the low stage is pretty quiet. In an urban or active suburban area one would hardly hear it. If bothersome, just turn it off while in the tub.

Tub assembled, stove next;

Stove & fence in.



Installed damper in first flue section and rain cap as it's gonna rain. Don't worry, 2 more sections (6 foot flue) in house.

You're going to be in hot water soon.
