  1. have you checked to see if switch is opening and closing?
  2. trying to rehab older tub with Balboa controls. changed pumps and now heater lights up when jets on high but not when on low.
  3. I have a three year old vinyl liner pool here outside St Louis. It is an indoor pool. My liner is losing color or pattern if you will if rubbed hard. What would cause that?
  4. What purpose does the impeller ring on a pump serve?
  5. On some Balboa boards you can lock controls by pressing certain sequence of buttons. Could this be concern?
  6. Also if you look inside or on back of the storage compartment on front of spa you wil usually find Model and serial number. If you contact Great Lakes now owned by Emerald Spas they might be able to help you get manual
  7. In response to Soakerman, reasons for not servicing such a spa can be numerous but I am only going to address a few. As a business why chance not getting paid for your services on a product you are not associated with nor have as a vested intrest. You say you might gain a customer. It is just as possible to alienate one because you are not respondsible for what the company will cover or not cover. If their product and services are of equal quality why does the customer have to be concerned about having to search out services for his spa? Heaven forbid that I would buy a spa that doesn't have a support or service network to back their product. I know just return it. That's certainly handy for the customer.
  8. Have a 5 year old D1 Dream HP that everything is working but will not heat past 92 degrees.
  9. If it is junk, and I am not saying it is, call Costco. Maybe they will come take it away and recycle it.
  10. I believe it is saying that # is person capacity and the true is just a verification thatb this is a spa not another type of "appliance"

  12. There seems to be argument about warranty coverage but Hydro Spa Corp has declared bankruptcy. Not out to sway you but might be important. I am sure you are going to hear more.
  13. That is correct about models and I apologise. The only reason to go with the three jet packs is it does give you extra to rotate around in the sequence and a bit more versatilty. Also the Series one has a more sophisticated control pad. Agree possibly better pressure. I don't feel there is a need for a circ pump since pump is not that noisey. One pump however has seemed to be more than enough for the customers I have serviced including thos who have opted for the largest jet pack(neck blaster) when there has been three jet packs. Final note as a tech I work on other more than I work on ours. They are not perfect but since dealing with them myself for the 4th year now I have had only one troublesome unit and coincidentally it was a recirculation pump concern. Last note I would like to add is I am not opposed to a circ pump just not totally convinced they are always what they are cracked up to be.
  14. First of all I am a tech for a Bullfrog dealer so I am sure can be considered bias. I also work on any spa that an owner might call in on. I feel that the jet packs offer mostly a leak free situation but more so if there are leaks they are easier to detect, find and correct. I feel the jet packs excel better in reducing plumbing, some efficiency qualities, and certainly some versatility and upgrade potential as time goes on. Study their website well when picking the jet packs you are interested in selecting or wet test the different packs. Don't always go with the "standard jetpacks". To me the whole point of the jetpacks is the opportunity to customize the spa to your desires rather than just go with the most "popular". Do they have any models for you to wet test? This gives you the opportunity to experience the different packs. For 08 they are going to change that model to a 231. 2 jet packs, 3 seats, one pump. Wet test a one pump spa and multiple jet packs an even if they don't have the one you want I think you should be able to make an educated purchase regarding a spa selection Hope this helps a little.
