Even if all the home spas are built with a lot of care which guarantees durability and reliability, you might be surprised by an error message on the hot tubs control panel at some time. It’s not a common occurrence but when it does, you will be confused about whether to attempt the repairs yourself or call an expert to rectify the problem. However, you need to know the repairs you can attempt and those that require an expert’s attention.
The biggest concern when attempting the repairs is your safety. Check the warranty of your device first to check whether the warranty period is over so that you can contact the manufacturer for the necessary repairs. Attempting any repairs could jeopardize the warranty and it could cause more costly repairs in the future. If you notice any of the following problems in your hot tub, don’t attempt to fix them. Call an expert and have the problem rectified.
1 Continuous Power Shutdowns Or Losses
Repeated power shutdowns are not problems caused by power shut down alone, but it can also occur if you have disconnected the safety switches. If you need your spa’s power system to function normally, hire an experienced technician to determine the genesis of the problem and undertake the necessary repairs to avert the problem.
2. The Spa Regularly Stops Heating
Hot tubs have a programmable thermostat that ensures water remains at constant temperatures. If you notice that the heater is constantly shutting down, or the circulation pump is always running, this is a clear indication that the thermostat is not functioning properly. Call in an experienced technician to rectify the problem before it causes more problems to the entire tub.
3. Controls Shut Down Every Now And Then And The Remote Is Not Working
If your spa is developing control issues from time to time, act fast, and hire a skilled spa technician to rectify the problem. The expert will check for all the possible problems and rectify them quickly. Also, he/she will replace any component of the remote control or the control panel that is faulty.
4. There Is Water Or Water Drops Around The Hot Tub
One of the most dangerous leakages around your tub is near the cabinet near the electrical system. However, the problem can be repaired if you hire an experienced technician. Disconnect the system from the power supply, drain the tub using the instructions from the user’s manual and then call in an expert to inspect and repair the tub to check for all the damages caused by the leaks. He/she will change all the damaged parts and seal off all the leakages so that the problem does not occur again. In addition, the expert will advise you on the right things to do so that you don’t notice the problem in the future.
If you notice any of the four signs above call in a qualified technician to rectify the problem before it’s too late. Don’t attempt to repair your tub as it may develop more problems which will be more costly to repair.
