heater may operate during
Freeze Protection.
This is an operational message, not an error indication.
The water is too hot
The system has detected a spa water temp of 110°F (43.3°C) or more, and spa functions are disabled. System will auto reset when the
spa water temp is below 108°F (42.2°C). Check for extended pump operation or high ambient temp.
Heater-Related Messages

There may not be enough water flow through the heater to carry the heat away from the heating element. Heater start up will begin
again after about 1 min.
See “Flow Related Checks” below.

The heater is too hot*
One of the water temp sensors has detected 118°f (47.8°C) in the heater and the spa is shut down. You must clear the message when

Flow-Related Checks
Check for low water level, suction flow restrictions, dirty filters, trapped air, too many closed jets and pump prime. On some systems,
even when spa is shut
down by an error condition, some equipment may occasionally turn on to continue monitoring temperature or if freeze protection is
needed.
