Possible Causes

Economy or sleep mode enabled, Undersized or failing heater, Poor insulation or damaged Everlast spa cover, Circulation pump not running continuously

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure safe access around the spa; no internal high-voltage work is required for basic checks.

  • Check operating mode: Confirm the Everlast control is in Standard mode, not Economy or Sleep.
  • Inspect cover: Examine the Everlast spa cover for waterlogging, tears, or poor fit. Replace if heavy or damaged.
  • Verify circulation: Ensure the circulation pump runs as programmed and that water is always moving through the heater when heating is called.
  • Measure temperature rise: With a thermometer, check that water temperature increases over several hours. If rise is minimal, the heater may be weak or partially failed and should be tested and replaced.
