How Much Can A Heat Pump Save Me?

Instead of generating heat directly, it transfers heat from the air into the water — similar to how an air source heating system works.

This allows it to achieve a Coefficient of Performance (COP) of 4–7.

That means:

For every £1 of electricity used, you can get £4–£7 worth of heat energy.

In real terms, many UK spa owners see:

50–70% reduction in heating costs

For a hot tub costing £80 per month to run in winter, that could reduce to around £30–£40.

Over time, the system can pay for itself.
