Hello! I recently purchased a used "Whirlpool Cielo" corner whirlpool tub and I just started using it. It works great at first, then the pump keeps shutting off after a few minutes. I would imaging that is the pump overheating and shutting off. It has plenty of air around it for circulation and I checked to make sure it was the proper voltage and it is. Any thoughts? Here are the pump specs. if that helps:
ITT Industries Hydro Air
Gemini Plus Pump Series
Model R125A-C
1 1/4 HP
120V, 10.5 amps
1 phase
50/60 hz
I checked the voltage on the plug that it is plugged into and it shows 120. It is also a dedicated circuit so I am unsure as to what can cause this. Bad impeller? Bearing? Please help!
thanks!
Tony
