Possible Causes

Spa just powered up, Air in plumbing after refill, User misinterpreting priming mode as error

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure all jets are submerged and slice valves are open before running pumps.

Steps during priming mode:

  • Allow priming to complete: After power-up, Strong Spas often enter a priming cycle where pumps run sequentially. This is normal and not a fault.
  • Bleed air if needed: If pumps are noisy or not moving water, loosen pump unions slightly to release trapped air, then retighten.
  • Exit priming: Follow the user manual instructions (often pressing a specific button) to exit priming once water flow is established.

When to call a technician: If the spa remains stuck in priming mode and will not transition to normal operation, the control pack or keypad may need service.
