Buckster Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 I recently installed a new panel and heater in my tub. I was wondering, how can you tell if the circ pump needs replaced? It seems to be moving less volume than before the change. I used to see a stream of water shoot out about 8 inches into the filter area; now I see a small trickle. MY tub heated from 55 to 105 in about 6 hours after the install. Thanks to those who helped out with my panel install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan.The.Spa.Man Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 If the tub heated up then the circulation pump is pushing an acceptable amount of water. If it was not then you would have problems with the power light flashing, indicating that the heater was getting too hot from low flow. If the pump is not making any noise and you can feel it vibrating slightly then it is probably fine. Also make sure the filters are clean, try taking them out to see if the flow increases.
