How to use the Balboa electric hot tub heating system

Balboa

Only turn on the Balboa system when the hot tub is filled with water, by connecting the plug to a socket and pressing the test/reset button on the plug.

When the system has started, you will see the text: run pump for temperature. By now pressing warm, you activate the system and the heating system circulation pump starts running.

Set the desired temperature

With the warm and cool buttons, you set the desired temperature; when you do this, the numbers start to blink. When the numbers appear continuously again, you can see the temperature that the water currently has.

Attention! It is possible that the display does not show a temperature but only two horizontal lines, the system is just on or does not measure the temperature constantly because it has been on for a while.

Temperature range

The system can be set to two different modes. In the high range, the up arrow, you can set the heating between 26 and 40 degrees. In the low range, the arrow pointing down, the impoverishment has a range of 10 to 37 degrees. You can adjust the range by pressing menu once, selecting Temp and then choosing the range with warm/cool. Confirm with menu.

Vogue

The Balboa system can be set in two different positions, namely ready or rest. In ready mode, the hot tub is heated to, or maintained at, the temperature you have set yourself. This mode is used when you use the hot tub regularly and can be recognized by the upright R logo at the bottom left of the display. In idle mode, the water is not kept at the right temperature, you can choose this when you go on vacation, for example. You can adjust this setting by pressing menu twice, then pressing warm once, and then pressing menu again to confirm your choice.

Jets, Bubbles & LED lights

You can activate these options by pressing the corresponding button once. Pressing again will turn them off. The bubble system shuts itself off after 10 minutes?? The jet system? The Jet System and the Bubble System cannot be switched on at the same time.

Set time

You can set the time by pressing the menu button three times, then you can set the hours with the warm and cool button. Confirm your selection by pressing menu. Now you do the same for the minutes. Once the power has come from the Ducktub, you must set the time again.
