Jacuzzi is a U.S. multinational company, founded by the Italian Jacuzzi brothers in California in 1915 and famous for manufacturing hot tubs. In 1915, the brothers founded Jacuzzi Bros, in Berkeley and they started a tradition of innovation in the field of aviation and agriculture, giving rise to a new industry with their home hydrotherapy products. In the 1940's, Candido Jacuzzi invented a therapeutic hydrotherapy pump to give his toddler son Kenneth relief from his rheumatoid arthritis. Soon after Jacuzzi engineers developed a home version of the pump that turned any normal bathtub into a relaxing and rejuvenating hydro-therapeutic spa. In 1956, the Jacuzzi family began marketing the J-300™ and changed the lives of people around the world. In 1968, Jacuzzi created the world’s first integrated jet whirlpool bath, the Roman. The incorporation of therapy jets into the sides of the bathtub was an incredible success. The patented jets produced a unique 50/50 air-to-water ratio and created an unrivaled experience. During the 1980s, Jacuzzi focused on enhancing the home spa experience, introducing models that worked as hot tubs, whirlpool baths, or both. The models incorporated soothing waterfalls and could be installed indoors or outdoors, turning the backyard into a favorite place to relax and entertain family and friends. Jacuzzi® Brand hot tubs and baths are sold in more than 60 countries around the world. Continually recognized as leaders of hydromassage, Jacuzzi continued to make advancements in pump systems, jet technology, air controls and product design.
