  If your Jacuzzi Heater won't light, there could be several reasons. First, ensure the heater has power. If there is no display, check if the power to the heater is turned on. Make sure the pump is running; if not, start it. Also, the pump might be air-locked, so check for leaks. A dirty filter or clogged pump strainer basket can also prevent the heater from lighting, so clean both. Check that the thermostat is turned on and that the set temperature is higher than the water temperature. If the water is too hot and a fault condition is displayed, or if the heater is in a fault condition, refer to the fault indication table. Finally, ensure the gas is turned on.

  If your Jacuzzi Heater is short cycling, it's likely due to insufficient water flow. Try cleaning the filter and pump strainer to resolve this issue.

  If your Jacuzzi Heater is making knocking noises, it could be due to a few reasons. Low water flow could be the issue, so check the pump condition. It's also possible that the heater is operating after the pump has shut off, or the heat exchanger is scaled. In either of these last two cases, shut off the gas supply and call for service.
