The Jacuzzi family has been inventing their trademark Jacuzzi tubs since the early 1900s and they haven't slowed down since. The company, stationed in West Palm Beach, Florida, is one of the largest and most well known manufacturers of whirlpool baths and spas in the world. In 1956 they invented a hydrotherapy pump to treat arthritis. In 1968, Roy Jacuzzi invented the first whirlpool bath by placing jets into the sides of a tub. A dozen years later, filtration and heating systems were added and the tub was enlarged to fit numerous people, thus creating the first spa/hot tub. Today Jacuzzi has 250 worldwide patents for advancements in pump systems, jet technology, air controls and product design. The company also deals in showers, toilets, faucets, sinks and swimming pool pumps and filters, making the Jacuzzi name synonymous with quality water products.
