Yeah, my first guess was aliens. But, nope, looks like it's just a bad design and build of spa pool.
What's your guess as to the sinister undertones of this thread?
Because, perish the thought someone would be having a host of legitimate problems with their overpriced, underpowered, poorly designed, unreliable Hotspring spa.
MrLobster:
Is there a possibility the spa is operating in 115v mode? I've pulled up the 2013 Hot Springs owners manual from http://www.hotspring.com/sites/default/files/highlife_owners_manual_2013.pdf, and there's a note at the bottom of Page 31 that says when wired for 115v the heater drops to 1.5kw and you are restricted to either heaters or jets running.
Changing between modes appears to need a Hot Springs technician in addition to an electrician to do the work, so I'm wondering if it could have been left in 115v mode even if the wiring is correct for 230v operation?
From everything said about the local dealer they don't fill me with confidence, maybe worth contacting the parent company directly to ask for advice?

What country is this spa in?

New Zealand. (240V electricity, to answer the previous question too).
Also interested in any tips on keeping Orcs out of the spa.
Dr. Spa™ Ret.:
And how many amps is it wired for?
