      Thanks for the comment - don’t see why not - depends on how much you can generate - if you are running on electric to heat and use jets could have you at 40A per hour which at 220V is about 10KWH - hope that helps - Andi

    I could have this wrong, but isn’t a grounding wire a thick copper wire you run to a steel pole beat into the ground? Or is no pole required? My dad had a pool and spa company and I remember installing some hot tubs with him around a decade ago but can’t remember all the details!

    If a Hot Tub ( Spa ) is fueled by an LPG tank and the gas runs out during the night will the spa reignite ( automatically ) when a new LPG supply is switched over at a later time ?

    • @Buildahottub
      @Buildahottub 14 дней назад

      Hi There, depends on the unit I guess and the specific ignition system that it has. There will be sensors that sense the flow of gas so the burner will stop when there is no flow - whether that comes back automatically, I think will be down to the unit. Hope that helps - Andi

    Hi Andy wonder if you con help with a little advice, i have a Grand Canyon spa, 3 Ha440 pumps Blower and ozone, went out of comision 2 years ago, recently i purchased a Balboa BP8 control pack with top side spa touch mini, all went well with set up and install had to change all the spa pump plugs etc for amp plugs, anyway after restarting PUMP 1 a 2 Speed started at 1st speed, tried to start 2nd speed and it tripped the house breaker, and then would not start at all, Pump 2 single speed dead nothing, pump 3 working perfectly blower working, i examined the pumps and decided i would also replace for new, i installed the new pumps, but got exactly the same result, if i plug pump 2 into pump 3 socket it works so i'm pretty sure its not the pumps.

    • @Buildahottub
      @Buildahottub 16 дней назад

      Hi Tony, i'll be doing a series of videos on the BP8 system soon as Balboa have actually just sent me a unit for my channel. You should be set to Spa Pack to Program #7. If you have not done this it could be the root of your problem. DIP1 up and then you can go into the settings menu on the Spa Touch mini. Check what connectons you have things plugged into - Pump 1 (2 speed) into J9, Pump 2 J14 - pump3 and blower into Expander Board. - hope that helps - Andi

I have it wired in a very basic way in that when i manually switch the pump on, the heater is wired into that switch, so it only recieves power when the pump is running, is there a way to wire it, so the pump will be triggered by the temperature drop in the flow through heater? Or do i need the "spa pack" you mentioned to control this?
