Why is my balboa hot tub not heating up?
Low flow in your spa or hot tub is most commonly associated with a dirty spa filter. If your spa heater won’t heat, remove and clean the filter(s) rule out a pressure or flow rate problem. Low water level, a clogged pump impeller, closed valves, clogged pipes or blocked spa drain covers can also cause flow issues.
Is it safe to replace a Balboa spa heater?
– REPLACE THE HEATER! You will find that some spa companies will suggest replacing the heater element as opposed to replacing the entire heater. This is NOT SAFE. Balboa Water Group does not sell heater elements and does not recommend the replacement of spa heater elements on any spa heater manufactured by Balboa Water Group.
