Jetsetter Start Up Question

[Jorem]

This may be a silly question, but I can't find an answer in the manual, so I thought maybe one of you nice people could help me. I just filled my new (new to me) 2005 Jetsetter, and everything looks good. What I don't know is if the heater is working. I set the temp for 101º on the control panel, but after a few seconds, the light goes out. I assume this is normal. Can I tell now if the heater is working, or just wait until tomorrow and if it's hot...it worked? Thanks!

Yes. You didn't specify, but if this Jetsetter is running on 110volts, it will take close to 14 hours to get hot on the initial fill.

Thanks for your reply Chas. Yes, it is running on 110, and YES it is HOT this morning!! Wooohooo!

If that's not a ringing endorsement to go 220V, what is?

(If your situation allows it, of course!)

PS - Now, I am thinking about 480V three-phase, running 4/0 out to the tub. . .

Here's a new tub I am working on that may put that debate to rest:

Not recommended for indoor use - seatbelts extra.

I would of if I could of...but I couldn't so I didn't

For most people, about this only time they'll notice a difference between 220 and 110 is when they refill the spa, or if they live in a very cold area and use the spa for 'long' periods of time. Filling it in the evening, or afternoon, and it not being hot till the next day, doesn't seem like a real issue to me........... Oh yeah, mine takes about 12 hours to heat up also (about 50 degrees from cold to hot).
