Title: Why wont my Viking Regal ETS cool down from 100 f?
Post by: Mdehlinger1 on June 26, 2016, 12:20:56 pm

I have successfully raised and lowered temps in the past, but for the last day or so - it seems to be stuck at 100f.

any suggestions?

During the summer you get what's called thermal creep.  The friction from the pumps operating can raise the temperature, more so when it's very hot out.  Some people find that they need to reduce their filtration cycle duration during the summer to keep the temp down.

What kind of hot tub?  Where do you live?  Does it get full sun? Does it have a dedicated circ pump?
