Possible Causes

Loose line or neutral connection to Thermeau heater, Shared circuit with large loads causing voltage dips, Failing internal power supply on control board, Corroded terminal connections

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before tightening terminals or inspecting wiring.

  • Inspect terminals: Tighten all line, neutral, and ground screws in the heater’s electrical compartment.
  • Check for corrosion: Clean any oxidized terminals with contact cleaner and re-secure.
  • Dedicated circuit: Ensure the heater is on a dedicated circuit not shared with pumps or other heavy loads.
  • Measure voltage: With a multimeter, check for voltage drops at the heater when it starts. Significant dips may require electrical service upgrades.
  • Board replacement: If supply is stable but flickering persists, the Thermeau control board’s power supply may be failing and should be replaced.
