dsfifty6 Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 good day everyone i have a Laguna Bay X5 and the mother board is fried. i called there customer service and they said i would need to replace the board, heater and pump. prices for those parts was well over what i felt was fair. i have been looking into retro fitting, which appears to be a cheaper solution. i have no experience or knowledge in this but i have a family member who is an electrician, i was concerned about the plumbing and voltage and i have a few other rookie questions. any help would be appreciated.

danthespaman316 Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 You can retrofit as long as you have a pack that runs 220V and account for all of the options that your tub has. Ozone, lights, circ pumps, etc. Your new board will control voltage to your accessories as needed. You'd be best served to get a full control pack with integrated heater and a new corresponding topside control. The pump should be pretty easy to replace as long as you stick to the same frame and plumbing sizes. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to do a complete over haul, i figured it would be best to start fresh with everything. the shell and the plumbing appears to be in good shape, no cracks or anything. is there a full control pack you would recommend?

danthespaman316 Posted October 12, 2017 Report Share Posted October 12, 2017 Sorry sir, I don't get on here as often as I should. Hopefully you've already gotten this taken care of. In case you haven't, anything by balboa will do you well and the swaps are pretty simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
