Hot Tub: A barrel or other wooden vessel used to contain warm/hot water for the purpose of soaking. (Like the old Redwood style tubs)
Spa: A vessel containing warm water with jets and/or air injectors for the purpose of generating turbulence in the water and offering massage.
In the modern market there are only a very small few manufactures of "Hot Tubs", although several persons in the spa industry will refer to their "Spas" as "Hot Tubs". Trying to differentiate between the two terms is really just an exercise in semantics.
"Jacuzzi" is a brand name hot tub/spa, like "Kleenex" is a brand of facial tissue. Jacuzzi also makes a number of other things including jetted bath tubs showers and other Home Improvement features.
Jet: A nozzle that water comes out of.
