Spa Controls

Spa Behavior

PUMPS

On the Spa Screen, select a “Jets” button once to turn the pump on or off, and to shift between 
low- and high-speeds if equipped. If left running, the pump will turn off after a time-out period.

Non-Circ Systems

The low-speed of pump 1 runs when the blower or any other pump is on. If the spa is in  
Ready Mode, Pump 1 low may also activate for at least 1 minute every 30 minutes to detect  
the spa temperature (polling) and then to heat to the set temperature if needed. When the  
low-speed turns on automatically, it cannot be deactivated from the panel, however the  
high speed may be started.

Circulation Pump Modes

If the system is equipped with a circ pump, it will be configured to work in one of two different ways 
depending on the control system software. The circulation pump mode cannot be changed.

1.  The circ pump operates continuously (24 hours) with the exception of turning off for 30 minutes 

at a time when the water temperature reaches 3°F (1.5°C) above the set temperature (most likely 
to happen in warm climates or if set temperature is lowered/set below the current water tem-
perature). This is the typical mode for most spas with a dedicated circulation pump.

2.  A programmable circ pump will come on when the system is checking temperature (polling),  

during filter cycles, during freeze conditions, or when another pump is on.

FILTRATION AND OZONE

On non-circ systems, Pump 1 low and the ozone generator will run during filtration.  
On circ systems, the ozone will generally run with the circ pump.

The system is factory-programmed with one filter cycle that will run in the evening (assuming the 
time-of-day is properly set) when energy rates are often lower. The filter time and duration are 
programmable. A second filter cycle can be enabled as needed.

At the start of each filter cycle, the pumps will run briefly to purge the plumbing to maintain good 
water quality.
