Possible Causes
Built-in pump timeout feature, Pump motor overheating and tripping thermal protector, Restricted flow causing pump to run hot, High ambient temperature in equipment bay
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Note: Many Lifesmart Spas automatically turn jets off after 15–30 minutes to prevent overheating.
- Check user manual: Confirm the normal jet timeout duration for your model.
- Monitor pump temperature: If the pump is too hot to touch when it shuts off, improve ventilation and check for flow restrictions.
- Clean filter and check valves: Ensure good water flow to reduce pump load.
- Allow cooling: Let the pump cool for 30–60 minutes before restarting. Repeated overheating may indicate a failing motor.
