I think that many of us can agree that the Hot Tub Manufacturing is generally not considered a GREEN industry. To put out their products, most Hot tub companies just spray fiberglass and resins, use plastics and steel without much regard for the environment, except to follow EPA guidelines. Well all that just change when “The California Energy Commission (CEC)” recently updated some of the most rigid standards in the USA that monitors energy efficiency. The CEC recently revised a bill called “title 20″, which sets a standard amount of allowable energy used by a portable spa/hot tub. These new guidelines were NOT met by 65% of hot tub manufacturers who failed an independent study done by California Polytechnic State University. Softub, on the other hand, was the ONLY manufacturer to pass these new guidelines without having to make any changes to its manufacturing process.
