Good Morning. I have a HotSprings "Hot Spot - Tempo" Model Spa. I believe this spa comes with 2 pumps. Pump 1 has 2 settings and Pump 2 has 1 setting. In other words, push once or twice for pump one and push a third time for both pumps to have all jets on.
long story short, the second time I push the controls and activate the second half of pump 1, it doesn't turn over. It was 'lethargic' and slow turning over for few days and then just stopped turning over and would just click. I turned the pump off right away thinking that it was seizing and would just burn out. That being said, I'm guessing I need a new pump, right? I think I can install it myself, I just am looking for the correct all in one pump online to purchase that I can install easily with the manual, online video. I will attach a few photos of the pump in question.
A side question to all of this, I don't live in super cold climate, however sometimes when it's 30 or so overnight, my spa ends up being only 88-90 degrees in the morning and that is covered with a new cover and locked. COULD the pump not working properly or only being 2.5 hp have anyting to do with this not staying warmer so I could enjoy it in the AM? When I got the tub, this was not an issue for years. Could this have to do with the pump just not having enough "umphhh" to keep it hot. I don't know if these two things are one in the same.
I was looking at pumps here and just don't know what to pick as a final choice if any. https://www.spadepot.com/?q=xp2%20hotsprings%20pump
thank you so much for the time and for any replies.
