Wondering what your spa is trying to tell you? Below is a list of common error codes from the top manufacturers of control equipment for hot tubs.

Note: The control system brand name is usually different from the hot tub brand name. You can often determine the make of the control system by looking inside the spa's equipment area.

Backwash Procedure

Balboa Error Codes

Attach the stopper caps to the inside of the liner and then remove the Lay-Z-Spa pump unit from the liner (you can do this by unscrewing the 3 couplings ‘A, B and C’).

Using a hosepipe, flush water backwards through the pump. Water should go through pipe ‘B’ and come out of pipe ‘C’.

After a few minutes, flush the water in the opposite direction for about 2 minutes (through pipe ‘C’ and out of pipe ‘B’).

If you have a Hydro Jet Lay-Z-Spa, unfortunately, the backwash procedure will be a little tricky. These are not constructed like the other models of the Lay-Z-Spa. please contact us
