Jacuzzis

Jacuzzi is recognized as the world's largest and best-selling brand of jetted and whirlpool baths. In fact, the Jacuzzi brand name has become synonymous with its products - much like Hoover did with vacuum cleaners. Many individuals believe that Jacuzzi is the name of the product when in fact it is actually the name of the company or brand selling the whirlpool. Jacuzzi's dedication to innovation won the company not only the first whirlpool bath patent, but at least 250 other worldwide patents for advancements in pump systems, jet technology, air controls and product design.

Jacuzzi products are a brand name with a long tradition. In the early 1900s, seven Jacuzzi brothers immigrated to California from Italy and invented the first enclosed cabin monoplane.

Decades later, in the 1950s, the innovative Jacuzzis created the portable hydrotherapy pump in order to help a family member suffering from severe arthritis. From that stroke of inspiration, a small niche business was born and the J-300 portable pump was sold to hospitals and schools. What started out as a small business, quickly evolved into a world-renowned company.

With an insight into the American consumer interest in health, fitness and leisure, in 1968 Roy Jacuzzi produced and marketed the first self-contained, fully integrated whirlpool bath by incorporating jets into the sides of the tub to produce the now familiar bubbling and swirling motion. An industry was born almost overnight!

After extensive research, the first Jacuzzi spa was introduced to the public in 1970. This was yet another success accomplished by Jacuzzi and the response to their spas was as equally overwhelming as the response with their previous products. This company has continued its success over the past 35 years and is expected to achieve even higher levels of success in the years to come.
