  If your MSpa Hot Tub is not heating properly, there are several potential causes. * The temperature might be set too low, so try setting a higher temperature. * A dirty filter cartridge can also cause heating issues; clean or replace it. * Ensure the water level is at least at the minimum water line; if not, add more water. * If the heater has failed or the filter pump isn't working, contact your local MSpa Service Center.

How to fix mspa Tekapo C-TE042 losing air?

  Robert KimAug 20, 2025
  If your MSpa Hot Tub is losing air, the air valve may be loose; inflate the spa until the yellow section of the manometer is pushed out and ensure the valve is screwed tightly, replacing it if necessary. Alternatively, there may be a hole or split on the spa tub. To locate it, fill a squirt bottle with soapy water and spray on the seams; bubbles will appear where there's a leak. Clean and dry the area before applying the repair patch.

  If there is no display on the control panel of your MSpa Hot Tub, first check the power socket for failure and change or repair it as needed.

  If your MSpa Hot Tub tub is in an abnormal shape, it may be due to extra air pressure caused by strong sunlight. Check the air pressure and release air if necessary. During hot weather, it's advisable to check and release air to avoid damage to the spa pool.

Why is there no bubble in my mspa Tekapo C-TE042?
- S
  Stephen WestSep 7, 2025
  If there are no bubbles in your MSpa Hot Tub, it could be due to the auto-off function activating after 10 minutes; wait for 10 minutes and then turn the Bubble button on again. If that doesn't work, internal parts may be damaged or the one-way valve may be broken, in which case you should contact your local MSpa Service Center.
