Possible Causes

Spa set to Economy mode in settings, Filtration/heating cycles scheduled only at certain times, User misinterpreting mode indicator, Control panel configuration changed accidentally

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal electrical work is needed for mode changes.

  • Check mode: On the topside control, cycle through modes (Standard, Economy, Sleep) using the Mode or Temp button combination as described in the Arctic Spas manual.
  • Select Standard mode: Choose Standard or Ready mode if you want the spa to maintain set temperature at all times.
  • Review filtration cycles: Ensure filtration/heating cycles are set appropriately so the spa has enough run time to reach and maintain temperature.
  • Monitor performance: After changing to Standard, allow several hours and verify that the spa now reaches and holds the set temperature.
