Possible Causes

Waterlogged or damaged spa cover, Poor cabinet insulation, Air leaks around equipment bay, Heater not cycling properly

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the spa remains powered so freeze protection can operate if needed.

  • Inspect cover: Check the Master Spas cover for heavy, waterlogged foam, tears, or poor fit. Replace if it no longer seals well.
  • Check cover latches: Ensure all latches are engaged to minimize heat loss.
  • Inspect cabinet: Look for missing or displaced insulation panels inside the cabinet and around the equipment bay. Replace or add insulation where appropriate, without blocking ventilation.
  • Verify heater cycling: Confirm the heater turns on as needed to maintain set temperature. If not, troubleshoot heater and sensors.
