2014 Jacuzzi J-345 circulation

(1/3) > >>

BigDaddysBBQ:
Hello all,

I recently started up my new J-345 and have had some trouble trying to program the tub to run in 24 hour circulation mode.  I've followed the instructions for menu PF and selected 6, confirmed it with the number one pump button, but the circulation pump will shut off after roughly 30 minutes.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you in advance....

Hi Big Daddy,

I also have the 345, but have not tried to change the filtration cycle, other than the time it starts. In just looking at the manual, after you pressed the Jet Pump 1 button, did "PF6" blink twice? The manual says it will blink twice to confirm your change has been accepted.

I'm also curious as to why you would want your circ. pump on for 24 hours? We keep ours at 8 hours and it works fine, although it is just two of us who are the primary users of the tub.

BigDaddysBBQ:
Thank you responding to my post.  I did push the pump 1 button to confirm my selection and it blinked twice.  I've tried restarting the tub and even disconnected the power for a hard reset.  Still getting the same result.

To answer your question, I've dealt with a lot of pools over the years and understand that water moving though a filter is less prone to bacteria as opposed to sitting water.  Especially being that we are dealing with tubs that contain hot water.  The circulation feature was a huge factor in my decision to go with the j-345 and not being able to force full time circulation is disappointing. 

Thank you again for responding.

Only other thing I can suggest would be to speak with your dealer, but I suppose you've probably already done that??? Maybe Jacuzzi Jim can answer your question (he is on this forum).

If you do get the answer please post it on this forum, as I would also like to know. I should also say that I would try it on my tub, but it is at our summer cabin. If I remember, next time we're at the cabin I'll try engaging the 24 hour circ. pump on our tub and will report back.

I did ask the dealer and he's "looking into it".  I also sent an email to Jacuzzi customer service, but have not heard back from them.

Thanks again Quickbeam...
