Possible Causes
Mispositioned pool/spa valves, Faulty actuator on Jandy-style valves, Incorrect heater mode selection, Automation programming error
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power to valve actuators before manual adjustment if required.
Steps to restore correct heating:
- Check valve positions: Verify that the suction and return valves are correctly set for pool or spa mode. The spa should be isolated when heating spa only.
- Test actuators: Manually move valve actuators to confirm they rotate fully and in the correct direction.
- Verify heater mode: Ensure the Jacuzzi heater is set to pool or spa mode matching the valve configuration.
- Review automation: Check pool controller programming for correct valve and heater commands.
