| SPA overheat |
I recently brought back to life an old Jacuzzi that had sat for about two years. I only replaced the circuit board. After about two months of use I had the heater fail to shut off. The heater light was on so it appears the circuit board did not turn it off. First I assume that was caused by a failing temp probe. The spa temp reached about 130 before I noticed and shut it off. Then the PVC attached to the heater slowly melted and I lost most of the water. So it appears I have a second problem of the high temp cut off having failed.
Is it likely that the heater survived the ordeal and I can just replace the two sensors and repair the PVC? Or should I just buy a new heater assembly? |

Replace sensors, repair pvc.
Be prepared to replace the heater ELEMENT. Best thing is to order both the sensors and element to save time. |

Thanks. I'm pretty sure I saw the element in the SpaPartsNet store so it shouldn't be too hard. Depending on the cost I guess I might just get a pre-assembled unit with the high temp cut out already installed. |
