What Does all this Horsepower Stuff Mean?

Should I Install a New Check Valve?

Is the Tranquility Spa Blower Really that Quiet?

The Tranquility Blowers utilize a unique design concept which incorporates dual tortuous air inlets to quiet down the inlet air flow. The incoming air must make a 180 degree turn, route through internal foam baffles and finally exit from our specially molded Santoprene motor housing. Nearly all blowers on the market today use a linear air-path design which contributes to the air noise tremendously.
In independent tests, the dB rating (decibal) rating of our blower- in an actual spa application- has been tested to almost 10 dB less than competitiors blowers! This is the difference of noise versus relaxation!

Can I Replace the Spa Blower Myself or Do I need an Expert?

While we would suggest that most spa repairs should be done by a professional, we also understand that everyone wants to save money and do-it-yourself is becoming the norm rather than the exception. On 99% of the spas manufactured over the years, the blower simply plugged into the spa control box. If your spa blower is plugged into the spa control box, then changing a blower is just like plugging in a computer printer. Note that the existing blower air connection should NOT be glued. It should be clamped or screwed to the blower. Lastly, the blower will be mounted to the base inside the spa equipment enclosure. Simply unscrew the mounting screws.
Now just repeat the steps with a replacement Tranquility Spa Blower and you have done it!
Note: If your spa blower is hard-wired into your spa control, we HIGHLY recommend that you contact a spa service company or an electrician for repair. We do not sell blowers without plugs on them at any time. Cutting off the cord plug voids the warranty.

So what does our Tranquility Spa Blower Warranty Cover?

When comparing replacement blowers, warranty should be considered. There are two ways that a blower will typically fail. Either water damage (due to the check valve leaking or sticking open allowing water to enter the blower motor) or the motor brushes will eventually wear from use. The motor brushes are made from a hard form of graphite carbon (like a pencil lead but much harder of a material). Like a pencil gets smaller with use, so does a motor brush. There are other reasons why a brush will wear faster (high amps, high heat, etc.) but it is our experience that blowers for spas have adequate brush life for the application.
All other online spa parts websites give you the “manufacturer’s warranty”. That means if you have a problem with the product within the warranty period, you have to go back to the factory to get warranty coverage. Then you need to produce a sales receipt to prove your warranty. What a hassle!
Our Warranty is one-year and is printed on our Owner’s Manual.
We make it easy. We are the factory. We have the records of your sale. In the unlikely event of a product failure, simply drop us an email or call us and we will expedite warranty coverage for you. No middleman. No forwarding your call to some other company. The buck stops here with us!
Our warranty for residential use (spa owner), covers everything but water damage. If your check valve fails, we cannot cover that blower failure simply because it was not our product that failed. There should never be water in the blower line if your check valve is working correctly. The check valve is the primary protection for the blower motor.
Other than that – we cover everything!

Are the Tranquility Spa Blowers Made in the USA?

You betcha! I guess we are old-fashioned. We in America. We believe we can source good, reliable components at a reasonable price and, using American labor, build a superior product than those that are coming from offshore. We were raised that way and continue the tradition in raising our families that way.
