Many people enjoy using hot tubs on a daily basis. A hot tub is equipped with a central control system, also known as a spa pack, which is responsible for managing the pumps, heater and filter to keep the water clean.
Why the Spa Pack Is One of the Most Important Hot Tub Components
The spa pack heater, along with the hot tub pumps, is one of the hardest-working components in the hot tub that makes it operate so you can be up to your chin in bubbling hot tub water all winter long.
Identifying Hot Tub Spa Pack Error Codes
If you're looking to diagnose your hot tub error codes, you may need to identify your spa pack brand first. Different spa packs and spa brands have their own set of error codes, but two commonly used are Balboa Error Codes and Gecko Error Codes.
It's important to note that Balboa Error Codes apply to all circuit boards manufactured by Balboa, even those customized for brands like Cal Spas, Marquis Spas, Master Spas, Jacuzzi, Sundance, and more.
Outdated Mechanical Spa Packs and Control Systems
Some of the older hot tubs have outdated mechanical control systems that are not reliable and inefficient. Rather than spending many thousands on a new hot tub, replacing the control system with a new digital spa pack can be a very good and cost-effective alternative.
Upgrading Older Digital Spa Packs
There are also hot tubs that have older generation digital control systems that still use a number of moving parts in them that do wear out over time. Replacing an older generation control system with a current generation can improve the performance, efficiency and longevity as the current generation Gecko spa packs do not have mechanical parts; instead, it has sensors for maximum efficiency and reliability.
Why Choose a Current-Generation Gecko Spa Pack
If you’re considering replacing the spa pack in your hot tub, we would invite you to browse the selection available from one of Canada’s largest and most reliable hot tub control systems manufacturers, Gecko, more specifically, the current generation Gecko Y series.
