What is a Capacitor and Why is it Important?
A capacitor is an electronic component that stores and releases electrical energy. In your hot tub’s water pump, it provides the extra boost of power needed to start the motor. Without a properly functioning capacitor, your pump may struggle to start or fail to run altogether, leaving you with a still and silent hot tub instead of the invigorating experience you’re looking for.
