Problem Possible Causes/Solutions
Spa Equipment does not operate. Nothing works.
G.F.C.I. has possibly tripped.
Reset G.F.C.I. on spa pack by pushing “reset”. If G.F.C.I resets
for a moment, then trips again, see “Blower does not work” below.
Power switch is off.
Make sure power switch is set to “on”
Household circuit breaker has tripped.
Switch breaker to "off" position, then reset to "on".
Equipment is not wired correctly.
Refer to wiring directions in your equipment manual. If you have
questions, call your spa dealer or equipment manufacturer.
Can hear IMS pump running, but water is not circulating
Knife valve(s) shut.
Shut off spa immediately. Otherwise, your equipment will “dry-
re” and burn out. Make sure valves are both in open position (pulled
up).
Pump has drawn air and lost prime.
Make sure that the water level in the spa is approximately to the
top slit of the skimmer.
Turn thermostat to “off” to protect heater. To release air from the
system, with pump running, open bleeder valve located on the lter
canister. (On top-load pressure lters, this is a small knob on tip of the
lter lid. On under-skirt in-line lters, this is a dime-sized cap located
on the side near the top of the lter. Top-load skim lters do not have
a bleeder valve.) Wait until water starts to spurt from the valve, then
re-close.
Let pump run for approx. ten minutes. If prime has not been
restored, momentarily loosen the quick-release nut on the right side of
the heater to release air that has been trapped in the pipes.
Don’t let the pump run for more than ten minutes without prime.
To do so could cause serious damage to your equipment. If, after 10
minutes, your pump has not picked up prime, wait 1 hour and try again
to restore prime. If you still can't start circulation, then call our service
department for additional tips.
