How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker before opening the equipment bay.

  • 1. Confirm settings:
    • Verify the set temperature is above current water temperature.
    • Ensure the spa is in Standard mode, not Economy or Sleep.
  • 2. Check for heating indicator:
    • Look for a heater icon or indicator on the display when heating should be active.
  • 3. Verify flow:
    • Clean filters and confirm strong circulation through heater return.
  • 4. Inspect heater connections:
    • With power OFF, check heater terminals for loose wires or burn marks.
  • 5. Test heater (technician):
    • A qualified person can measure heater resistance and voltage when heating is commanded.
    • If voltage is present but no heat, replace the heater assembly.
    • If no voltage is present, the heater relay or control board is likely faulty and should be replaced.
