Why does my Dream Maker hot tub have no heat?
Low or no heat may be the result when the filter is dirty or the jets are not fully open. Clean the filter and open the jets to test whether the heat problem resolves.
Where does the heat come from on a Dreammaker pool?
Welcome to TFP!! While some spas in the past (maybe still) were designed to capture excess heat from the pump by wrapping tubing around the motor, this is not the primary source of heat. There will be an in line heater somewhere in the pipe from the pump to the return jets.
What to do if your Dreammaker heater is not working?
So on Friday I went home and put a tarp doubled over op top of the tub end to end, then placed a sheet of plywood over the tarp and a couple 2×8’s to make up the rest of the coverage over the top of the tub so that it was fully sealed. Turned on the spa and left it.
Do you need a hot stick for a Dreammaker pump?
You need that red wet end of the pump (that is the “heater”). There are “fins” or groves in that part that create friction and that heats the water. That’s the “hot stick” part. Your new pump does not have that. In my experience you have to order the pump from dreammaker (I have replaced 2 on 2 separate tubs).
Are there any problems with the Dream Maker hot tub?
Dream Maker’s line of hot tubs varies in features, but most models have multiple jets, digital controls, a filtering system and a heating system. Many problems with the tub occur within one of these features. Some problems you are able to troubleshoot and repair, but other issues require a call to the dealer for assistance.
What does no spa light on Dream Maker mean?
No spa light equals a burned-out bulb, a blown light fuse or a light harness that has come unplugged from the control box. Your Dream Maker dealer is best to contact for a blown fuse or an unplugged light harness, but you can replace either of the bulbs.
