Lay-Z-Spa pump/heater unit feels excessively hot to the touch on the outside during normal operation.

Safety first: If the housing is too hot to touch comfortably, unplug the spa and allow it to cool before further use.

• 1. Check ventilation: Ensure all air vents on the pump/heater unit are clear of obstructions, leaves, or debris.
• 2. Relocate or shade unit: Move the spa so the pump is not in direct sunlight or against a wall that blocks airflow.
• 3. Limit continuous operation: Avoid running heater and bubbles together for extended periods in hot weather.
• If overheating persists: An internal cooling fan (if present) or component may be failing. Continued use could damage the unit; contact Lay‑Z‑Spa support.
