RDspaguy Posted October 1, 2020 Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 If that's the case then the heater should read 10 ohms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REA Posted October 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 @RDspaguy Thank you. How would you start to see which heater it should have ? thanks Russell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDspaguy Posted October 2, 2020 Report Share Posted October 2, 2020 I suspect that, as @CanadianSpaTech said, it is an export pack and is designed for 240v only operation and has a heater specifically for the export models. I will have never seen one, having only worked on spas in the US. You should replace it with the same heater, or at least one of the same electrical rating (kw, volts). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Preskey2021 Posted April 2, 2021 Report Share Posted April 2, 2021 Hello I’ve got a Sumatran tiger river spa. The circ pump is leaking at the pipe joint ..it does not seem to be heating up? Is the leaking circ pump the issue ? Should the filament feel warm to touch if working? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
