    Why does the pump surge in my Catalina Nantucket?
    • L

      Pump surges in your Catalina Hot Tub can be caused by a water level that is too low (add water) or a blockage or restriction (empty the filter basket and clean the suction drain covers).

    Why does my Catalina Nantucket heat, but not high enough?
    • C
      Candice SmithAug 23, 2025
      If your Catalina Hot Tub heats, but not to the desired temperature, it could be due to the thermostat being turned down (increase the temperature setting), a dirty filter (change the filter), a closed slice valve (open slice valves), or a shifted spa cover (reposition the spa cover).

    How to fix cloudy water in my Catalina Nantucket Hot Tub?

      Justin RobertsonAug 25, 2025
      Cloudy water in your Catalina Hot Tub can be due to several factors. You might need to replace the filter, add shock, or clean the cover with an approved cleaner. It could also be caused by improper sanitization or suspended organic matter, in which case you should add sanitizer. In some cases, you may need to clean or replace the filter, add shock, and run the jets. If the problem persists, consider draining and refilling the spa and replacing the filter, as the water may be at the end of its life or have a calcium pH imbalance.

    • K
      Kevin SmithSep 7, 2025
      Stains on the acrylic surface of your Catalina Hot Tub can be caused by high alkalinity or low pH (adjust alkalinity and pH accordingly), high mineral content (use stain & scale reducer), high metal content (use metal sequestering agent), or high calcium levels (adjust alkalinity and use stain and scale reducer).

    Why is the water flow low in my Catalina Hot Tub?
    • J
      Jennifer FoleySep 4, 2025
      Low water flow in your Catalina Hot Tub can occur because the spa is heating or filtering (normal spa function), the diverter valve position (rotate diverter valve to increase flow), the air valve is closed (rotate air valve to open), the filter is dirty (clean or replace filter), the slice valve(s) are closed (open slice valves), or there is improper line voltage (have an electrician check voltage).
