It’s a twist. if I remember correctly it’s anti clockwise to undo it. It will only go one way to undo.

Hi many many thanks for swift reply yes founds its the impeller, re seated it and it worked but stopped again. re setted it worked again. found one on amazon for £7.79. wahou! looks the fix. save £190 with canadian spas!

Its the impeller, its was slightly out of its seating. Pumps good now to try Akira's recommended impeller. Ill post my findings on the V1 soon

had exactly the same occur. it curculation pump works put blower option on. stop it before its run full cycle and then you can hear pump motor start but impeller doesnt turn. canadian spas, £60 postage, £90 new pump and £40 labour. wont sell the pump did you find a solution ?

Hi all, I got given two PCU. 1 V1 so canibalised that to get my V1 running, swapped the impeller over and its all good. rest I'll keep for parts. 2 V2 that looks like it'll need a new water pump. Anyone any ideas on finding one? Canadian Spa not so helpful on supplying just the water pump!

And the photo shaft is 3.5mm

3mm for the V1 do you have an Intex one to check ? thanks winston heres the one thats an option. but they are saying shafts 85mm so different to the one you have listed. any links to the one you have mentioned?

Hi winston, whats the shaft diameter ? thinking use the V1 shaft with the intex impeller ?

yes please, its a battle to find an impeller to match the Canadian Spa V1 one key one is shaft length without rubber ends and with. It looks like the rubber seals when then degrade the impeller gets mobile then chews its self up. dimensions of rubber ends, height and width. Cheers Winston.

Hi Io, Sounds exactly like mine. Its a work in progress. I think I have found a replacement, Intex Pure Spa Impeller. its very close match. awaiting one to see if it fits. £18.35. To get in to the unit. - underneath there are some screws to remove. - then the interesting part !! the heater port needs to come off. - top of unit the control pad, 4 screw below rubber plugs. the rubbers should come out fairly easily. Lift off the control pad. underside of lid unscrew the cover to the control circuit board. then unplug the cable lid is now separate to the unit. - looking down on the inside to the unit next to the heat port there is one screw connecting it the outer case. - then from the outside you then need to slide a crew driver in alongside it to get to the four screws holding the blower. Its fiddly but its the only way to remove the (black) heat port. screws off and then it twists off. - now you can lift the lid off. the other two ports (air) (water in) stay in place. - impeller is under the black lid, that twists off. - now you'll see the impeller. If lifts out. You'll probably see blades missing or its come unstuck. if thats not making sense shout and ill get some photos for you.

thanks for your help. Looks smaller the dimensions on v1 impeller shaft (stainless) 82mm minus rubbers blade width 42mm blade height 10mm magnet width 20mm magnet height 40mm total height 62mm now begins the search for a replacement.

I’ve managed to get in !!!! I’ll put a how to when I put it all back together! got the impeller plastic shaft through the middle broken.

This is the version 1. Just trying to get into it to get to the pump looks to be that need to pretty much dismantle the whole thing. The impeller with arrow, i can turn it but it gets stuck before it does a full revolutiuon. back flushed, tried a suction / blow air see it anything is logged in there. the pump is still working as when tested is kicks the impeller round till it sticks. V1 big difference is that the front ports dont seem to twist off as the V2 one does. which then makes lifting the lid off simple. makes getting to the internals perplexing!!!

If only it was. Just getting into the version 1 is proving challenging. thanks so much for taking the time for your advice. Its definitely the impeller. I just need to get to it. I'll post some advice regards the V1 once i can open it up.

Long shot I’m trying to replace impeller on version 1 Is there a pdf / link on the process ? or any advice on how to open up the unit. Looks straight forward but proving challenging many thanks
