toweled bengaled lady has a question?

<< < (2/3) > >>

drzonker:
yes,  I called the dealer this morning (actually I spoke to the service tech)  and he agreed with Chas that the electricity was wired correctly and that it may have been a glitch ect.

He said since it was running again he would not send a tech but if it were to occur aqgian he would send a tech and not to worry because I have a five year warrenty.

Anyway, I really appreciate everyone's help and input and, although I have not posted here, I have been lurking for a while and you guys helped me decide on a watkin's product.  I have really learned a lot from this site.

Chas:
May you soak long and prosper.

wmccall:
Good answers so far, quick question, Did you also have the air conditioning on, running the microwave and have the tub heating up?   Do you know what your electrical service is rated at?

I've only got 100 amp service, but my heat is gas.   When I first heat up my tub with fresh water and the AC is on in the house and someone hits the microwave, or electric dryer, my spa can drop out occasionally.   I've learned to live with it as it is cheaper than getting wired for 150amps or more.

drzonker:
How do you figure out what your electricty is rated at?

I probably did have a lot of things runing ect.  However, doesn't  the tub run on a separate circuit.

The other day my air conditioner stopped working when the washer was on.

Do I have to be worried about what electrical I am using b/c the tub is always using power?  I never even thought of that.  I live in a 1942 house.

Chas:
Look at the "Main" breaker for your panel. It will be a 100, or larger.

Yes, your spa should be on it's own dedicated circuit.
