Energy Efficiency
Sunrise Spas strives to make not only a product of the highest quality, but also a product that is energy-efficient and green conscious.
Some of our energy efficient/green conscious construction features are:
|
GreenGuard
|
Our GreenGuard technology combines the insulating properties of air chambers with our unique bagged ROXUL insulating panels. ROXUL maintains a high R-Value and will not absorb moisture, preventing the growth of fungi or mildew. The stone wool of ROXUL insulating panels is made from naturally occurring balsat rock mixed with over 40% recycled slag.

PermaLoc RotNot Base
|
The injection moulded base, made from a virtually indestructible composite material which is also 100% recycled, is totally impervious to water and rodents, will never warp, and is absolutely maintenance free. (Only available on the Paragon series) |
|
PermaLoc Vertical Support
|
Unlike many other brands, a Paragon “chassis” contains no wood, which could rot or weaken over time. Our unique vertical supports are made from the same material as the base, and are injection moulded for precise fit and perfect alignment. (Only available on the Paragon series) |
|
Outback Eternalwood Cabinetry
|
Our stylish Eternalwood cabinets are not just attractive they are designed to support energy-efficiency and low maintenance – two of the top requests we get from our customers. Our cabinet infrastructure employs a unique triple laminating process; a colour fast synthetic outer layer, a 2mm PVC sheet for added strength and a 20mm Styrofoam insulating slab which are bonded together. Eternalwood is an engineered material that will give you the look and feet of real wood without the faults of real wood such as fading, warping, and the constant maintenance and protection. The unique tri-lam design creates a strong cabinet with additional insulating properties that is unmatched in the industry. (Only available on the Paragon series) |
In additon to our construction features, we have also given you some state-of-the-art options to make your tub even more energy efficient and green conscious. These options include:
|
Low Energy Consumption Circulation Pump
|
Operating separately from our jet pumps, a dedicated energy-efficient circulation pump filters the spa approximantely every 14 minutes for as long as your spa is running. Powered by less than 1 amp, our circulation pump costs less to operate than a 100-watt light bulb. (Optional on Aspire series, Standard on Paragon series)
|
|
Freshwater Ozonator
|
An ozonator produces ozone gas, the same gas which protects our earth’s atmosphere. When ozone gas is injected into your spa water it acts as an oxidizer which destroys organics that bacteria feed on. Ozone also breaks down oils, including body oil, to keep your spa clear and fresh. An ozonator can help reduce the amount of chemical you use to treat your spa water. (Optional on Simplicity and Aspire series, Standard on Paragon series)
|
|
UV Sanitizing System
|
The UV sanitizing system is a chamber which emits ultraviolet light as the water passes through. The water is exposed to the UV-C band which is also known as the germicidal range. The light penetrates the cell walls of bacteria, viruses and other micro-organisms, altering their DNA or RNA. This process deactivates the cell making them unable to replicate. A cell which is unable to replicate is considered dead. The result is that you’ll us much less chemical to treat your spa water. (Optional on Aspire series and Paragon series)
