Jetted bathtubs vs. Whirlpool tubs

Jetted bathtubs, sometimes called whirlpool tubs, are designed to replace traditional soaker bathtubs. In a jetted bath, a water pump supplies multiple jet nozzles with flow for a relaxing massage bath experience. Apollo Spas designs and builds an extensive line of jetted baths that are pre-leveled and pre-framed, incredibly strong and equipped with high quality components.

Bath tub terminology

Whirlpool is actually a brand, but it is often used as a generic name to refer to any jetted bathtub or hot tub. Hot tubs and spas typically have one or more water pumps that drive multiple jet nozzles, are typically larger in size than a bathtub and are typically used outdoors.
