The house I just bought included a 5 year-old Hot Spring spa. It worked beautifully on the first day--no problems.
The following morning, both the power and ready lights were flashing. No heat was coming out, and the tub was not circulating. I followed the process for removing an airlock and can confirm that there is none.
I've reset the GFCI breakers at least a dozen times over the past week. Within 5-10 seconds of flicking them back on, both red and green lights flash. Jets can still turn on but no heat and no recirculating. If I leave them to flash, the green light goes off after ~12 hours or so, and just the red light flashes--the jets no longer turn on either.
I'm suspecting it's the recirculating pump. Filters are out entirely and I've blasted water down the circulation filter tube. The previous owner says he cleaned the filters out for us, so either something has stopped up the circulation pump, the circ pump has failed, the heater has failed, or....?
What should my next steps be?
Many Thanks
