What does a circulation pump do in a hot tub?
Hot tub circulation pumps are low-flow pumps that constantly circulate in water as slowly as possible to provide your spa a continued filter, heat and chemically treated water.
What should I do if my hot tub pump is not running?
If this is the case, just make sure your pump runs quietly and constantly. Older spas may run on a timer mode or automatic mode which means it doesn’t run all throughout the day but will kick on at regular intervals. Check your spa owner’s manual if you want to adjust those settings and have it filter more or less frequently.
What kind of pumps are used in hot tubs?
Circulation pumps used in spas and hot tubs, also called Circ Pumps or Hush Pumps, are low-flow pumps that constantly circulate the water (24/7) very slowly, to continuously filter, heat and chemically treat the water. Common spa/hot tub circulation pumps are made by Aqua-Flo, Grundfos, Laing and Waterway.
Why does my Hot Tub Run All the time?
If your spa’s heating element is burnt out, the pump may run all the time. Try turning the thermostat to OFF or LOW to see if the pump turns off. There’s a possibility if it doesn’t stop running that the timer is faulty or something is wrong with the circuit board. Call your local service professional for replacement in that case.

When does a hot tub pump have a problem?
And when the spa pump ain’t happy, ain’t nobody happy – that’s because without water flow, there is no filtration, no sanitation and no heating. Spa pumps need to operate every day to maintain clean and hot spa water – so when your hot tub pump has problems, it’s an emergency.
What does a hush pump in a hot tub do?
