Possible Causes
Recent power outage, Loose connections at GFCI or spa pack, Undersized or overloaded circuit, Voltage drop due to long cable run
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Only qualified persons should open electrical panels. Always turn off power at the main breaker before inspecting wiring.
- Reset GFCI: Check the Canadian Spa Company GFCI plug or breaker and reset if tripped.
- Inspect supply voltage: Have a qualified electrician measure voltage at the spa pack terminals while pumps and heater are running to ensure it is within specified range (e.g., 220–240V for 240V models).
- Check connections: Verify that all lugs and terminals in the spa pack are tight and free of corrosion.
- Reduce load: Avoid running multiple high-draw appliances on the same circuit as the spa.
Persistent PF errors require an electrician to correct supply issues or upgrade the circuit to Canadian Spa Company specifications.
