Buying a Spa pack can be very important for those who wish to keep their spas in perfect condition. One of the most important components to consider in your spa is the Spa Heater. Should there be any issues with the heating element, the spa would not work efficiently and be at risk of considerable damage. While spa pack options and spa heater products are readily accessible online, it still pays to have a strategy in addressing common issues to effectively turn a nonfunctioning spa into a soothing and relaxing tool. Here are some common issues with the Spa Heater and how to address them.

No heat

There are several possible causes for the Spa Heater to not produce any heat. First, the pump is not pumping any water so the hot water is actually stagnant and could result to serious damage because of the heat. It is important to check if the filters are blocked or if the pump died out. The Spa Heater might also not function if the doors of the spa cabinet are not closed, causing most of the heat to dissipate in the air instead of heating the water. You should keep the cabinet closed when the spa is in use.

Heat inconsistent

Another issue with the Spa Heater would be inconsistent heating or the heater goes on and off. One of the reasons is that the water level is low. If the water level is low, the water might not be reaching the heater and this leads to inconsistency in heating the water passing through. It is ideal to raise the water levels to the right settings to ensure that the Spa Heater can effectively deliver consistent heating of the water. Another possible risk would be a dirty filter. If the filter is not clean, it blocks much of the water and that means the hot water does not pass through easily and instead of getting warm water immediately, you get lukewarm to room temperature water. It is ideal; to clean the filters or buy a new spa pack to replace the old, ineffective filters.

Heat takes a long time to generate

This is a more complicated aspect. For one thing, the thermostat could be busted and the high limit switch turns off the heater in the wrong time. If these parts get damaged, then it is necessary to get a spa pack to replace these parts. Another issue that could cause lengthy heating is that the insulating cover has become damaged so instead of keeping the heat inside the tubes, the heat dissipates outside so the heater has to do more work and gets worn out easier. Again, check the filter since this could also cause the water to not be delivered effectively. The longer the water is inside the tube, the less hot it gets and thus, the spa does not offer really warm and invigorating experience.

Understand that there is many more reason why the Spa Heater become damaged or worn out. The important thing is replacing the unit with a new one to ensure quality heating results.
