HEATER ANd INTEgRATEd PRESSURE
SWITCH
WatkinsManufacturingCorporationunconditionallywarrantstheNo-Faultheateragainstanyfailurethatwouldrequirereplacement.Thiswarranty’s
duration is equal to the time period identified in the Component Warranty. This warranty defines unconditional as warranty coverage without
exceptionprovidedthatthecomponenthasfailedtooperateproperlywithinthespa’ssystem.Thismeansthatconditionsthatwouldnormally
invalidate the limited warranty, such as water chemistry damage, do not apply to the No-Fault heater.
It is important to note that the No-Fault heater is protected by both the heater high limit thermostat circuit and the integrated pressure switch. The
causes of heater high limit tripping are discussed in the previous section.
If the spa is not heating, the red and green lights are blinking, but the pump and light are operating, then the pressure switch may be open. Opening
of the pressure switch is normally a result of one or a combination of these problems: 1) a clogged filter cartridge, 2) blockage within the system
plumbing, 3) power was not disconnected to the spa before it was drained, or 4) an air lock in the plumbing lines. Once the problem has been
identified and corrected the pressure switch will close which will energize the heater.

CIRCUlATION PUMP ANd
CIRCUlATION PUMP THERMAl CUT-OFF
The Silent Flo circulation pump is a dedicated, water cooled, energy efficient, quiet pump that provides continuous filtration for the spa. Since the
Silent Flo circulation pump is water cooled, it is equipped with a thermal cut-off to prevent the pump from being damaged by running hot when water
is not present.
Resetthecirculationpump’sthermalcut-offbydisconnectingpowertothespaandallowingthepumptocool.
Tripping of the thermal cut-off is normally the result of one or a combination of these problems: 1) clogged filter cartridge(s), 2) blockage within the
system plumbing, 3) power was not disconnected to the spa before it was drained, or 4) an air lock in the plumbing lines. Once the problem has
been identified and corrected the pump thermal cut-off will be able to be reset which will allow it to operate normally.

dealer if your spa requires troubleshooting beyond the scope of this manual. Freshwater III ozone
systems should only be serviced by a qualified technician.

MISCEllANEOUS SERVICE INFORMATION
Thecontrolandhigh-limitthermostatsareequippedwithelectronicsensorsthatareconnectedtothespa’splumbing.Nevercutorkinkthewires
that connect the sensors to the thermostats within the control box.
The jet pump is equipped with a thermal overload cutoff switch that is designed to protect the pump from overheating. If the pump shuts itself off in a
new spa, it is usually the result of one or a combination of the following factors:
• Thermaloverload:Althoughmass-produced,notallthermaloverloadcutoffsareexactlythesame.Somearemoresensitivethanothers
and will shut the pump off at lower temperatures.
• Hightemperature:AllHot Spring spas models are equipped with a jet pump shroud that vents the heat generated by the pump motor to
the outside of the equipment compartment, and back into the spa water. If the vent is blocked by masonary, grass or debris, overheating of
the jet pump may occur. Once the pump motor has cooled sufficiently and any blockage has been removed from the vent opening, the jet
pump can be restarted.
• Improperwiring:Ifthespaisconnectedincorrectly,and/orthehousewiringisundersized,thepumpmaystarveforvoltageandtherefore
may draw more amperage and generate excessive heat.
• Ifthepumpisshuttingdownduetoexcessiveheat,makesuretheequipmentcompartmenthasadequateventilation.Theairscreensat
the bottom must not be blocked. Should your jet pump continue to shut off after short periods of use, contact a qualified service technician.
