Replace it with a new valve...once the thread are not holding the only fix is to replace the whole assembly with a new one. Ive done several video on how to do this.. Its really not hard it just takes several hours to do. Hope this Helped Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

I clean the area really good with a file and then sand paper... And the Beat PVC Cement Ive found so far is Christ"s Red Hot Blue Glue.. Pro tip: Clean ,Glue, and let it set up and dry for 24 hours. Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

That is fantastic...Glad to help Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

You can put the GFCI in the main or a Spa disconnect box. Now I always have two breakers on every install I've ever done or helped and Ive put the GFCI in one or the other... I have never just put a GFCI in the main with a disconnect that was not a breaker . I do not like the disconnect like what is used on an AC for instance. Hope this Helps Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

@@spaman5440 Thank you! I'm the second owner of a home built in the early '90's and I recently replaced the original hot tub. The original wiring is simply a non GFCI breaker in the main panel and about a 75' run of 8/3 cable. It's a very harsh ocean cliff environment and I can't use anything metal outside unless it's stainless steel or plastic. I really want to rewire this installation to ensure it's safe/proper. Your videos have given me the foundation to redo this wiring the right way.

@@cottydry The 8/3 is the wrong size and type of wire to use outside or on any Hot Tub... I use THHN or THWN wire only #6 on all four wires. Our company fixes this type of problem all the time.... You also need to have a Spa disconnect with in 20 feet of the hot tub and no closer then 5 feet and a min of 36 inches off the ground. Hope this Helps and Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

I would need to see how it is wired... The fact that two boards have been fried tells me it is wired wrong. in cases like this I always start with the main checking wiring / breaker then move on to sub disconnect and again make sure everything is wired correct then move on to the pack In the pack I would disconnect every thing I have ways in the field to check motors and I would check them first to make sure they are good. The fact that two boards fried tells me something was done wrong. Hope this Helps Feel free to call the office and talk to Scott to see his thoughts. Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

@@spaman5440 Thank you for the help , I agree what i can tell is they mis identified the plug for the pump2 he landed it on the Circ pump not the Pump2 the spa does not have the optional Circ pump installed. so it had to have been the issue. Im going to ohm out the motors and see if they are dead short or open , but yes i ordered him a new board to replace the other 2 he burnt up . Thank you again i hope others can benefit of these comments.

Make sure all the jets are open and the diverter valve is in the middle and the plunger should work… if not you can take the side off and find primary pump one and crack open the the pump and this will work also… now for the bad part of you open it up to much and the O-RINGS gets pushed out you may half to empty and fix o ring and start over… Hope this Helps Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

Thanks for the reply back I do appreciate it. I tried again the toilet plunger still nothing. My Caldera Spa has a stem where the filter goes on so the toilet plunger can’t suction out because of the stem design of it. My hot tub doesn’t have a diverter valve on the top area of my spa the only controls in a valve situation is turning on & off the jets to the seated portions. So unfortunately, it’s something that’s gonna have to be troubleshoot through taking off the control panel. I tried sticking the garden hose down the stem where I removed my filter, turned it on full blast, even tried that nothing worked.

Check your connections Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

@@spaman5440 I have checked all connections and even replaced the GFCI breaker. I am leaning toward the circulation pump overheating over time, or am I off track. I think if it was the heater element it would trip right away.

Not really sure what you are asking... A hot tub with two pumps and motors 99% of the time has to be wired 220/240 volt hard wired. Hope that Helps ...Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

@@spaman5440 sometimes not knowing enough means not knowing the right questions to ask, so I am sorry for the confusing question I asked. I guess what I am trying to find out is, my 220v hottub has 2 pumps, so do I have to run 2 separate 220v circuits (220v circuit per pump) or will the one main 220v circuit power the tubs two pumps

Not sure .. Cir pump is small and about the size of a grape fruit Ozone is a black box and is sometimes mounted to the side of the pack. Post a Pic of it Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

@@spaman5440 okay so it's not the circ pump, there is a 2" clear tube uniting the pump to the pack and it's that small black box that is leaking...

@@JavierMunoz-gy9sn I thing that it is your Heater and if it is leaking it will need to be replaced . If that is the case its not a really hard fix just take a lot of time and you have to take special attention so you don't break other part while removing the heater . Sometime now is a good time to replace some items that need replacing after many years of service you are there and have to remove several parts and it will save you time and money in the long run... If your in Az and need Help call our off ice and we will do the repair for You Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

LOL me too until I figured out everyway to make one go away. Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

Call the off ice a nd talk to Scott... Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

@spaman5440 I talked to a guy online. My system is actually a 1 pump but he said I needed to do a retrofit and recommended the Gecko YE5

Look like? I am trying to do a plug n play on my spa.

Call the office and ask for Scott ... He will be able to help you. Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

As long as you can cover the filter inlet and get a good seal and all of the connection are tight...I will work every time. If it doesn't work you could have something else going... Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

Sorry to hear you are having so much trouble.. In all of the years that I have been doing Spa repairs Balboa is by far one of the best designs on the market. So I see this all the time with home owners You might of bought the wrong heaters with the wrong sensors. A lot of DIYer think they are buying an OEM part when in fact it is an after market part sometime you get lucky sometimes not. As for the electrical connection... Make sure you put the washer on the right side of the connection and they make a special 1/4 wrench for that task. I never use aftermarket parts because of the problems you are having Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING

DO NOT EVER DO THIS Don't ever mix them. I sometimes will empty into a pool only after I am told that the owner is using the same chemicals in both the Hot Tub and the Pool Thanks for Watching & SUBSCRIBING
