Hot tub was over filled and completely shut off. Circuit breaker is fine and the gfi at the power switch is not tripped. I have a 2007 cal spa. I can’t find this red button that I keep hearing about.

There are generally two "hard resets" in hot tubs, the GFCI, and the high limit reset. The GFCI pops if there is any type of electrical short (such as water getting into the heating element, the reset on that can be in one of three places. 1-at the circuit breaker, 2-at the plug outlet or on the end of the cord (110 volt models, or 3- on the pack located near the heater chamber.

The high limit pops if the water in the heater chamber gets to hot, this interrupts the heating circuit. Generally speaking, it's a small red button that is also located on the control pack, if it is out (stiff), then it is popped. There are many different brands, about 95% are this way.

If either one is tripped, there is usually something that caused it, as they are both for safety. I could help further if needed.

Can I post here? I overfilled my Balboa hot tub. The lights are on but it keep shutting down. If I push the reset on the cord, the jets will turn on but won't run long. Do I need to dry something out, or did I ruin my tub. It's winter in the mid-west.

Controlling hot tub equipment with smart phone

I bought the smart hot tub timer from Thermomart in the following link,

'''http://www.thermomart.com/cellphone-w...

The product works. It’s good quality. It is easy to download the app and I paired it in 15 minutes.

This timer saves me $30-$50 a month and also I do everything on my cellphone or by voice (by Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant) from anywhere!

The Timer ''can be programmed as scheduled (24 hours 7 days with 8 events) or loop timers if you want to use more event every day. It has a countdown timer too.

It has a waterproof box and it is suitable for outside. I use the sharing system and now my wife can control the hot tub pump too.

Would definitely recommend purchasing.

My co-z hot tub suddenly keeps tripping the safety on the plug outlet. I can reset and it turns on panel but as soon as I push the Heat button it trips off again. I tried unplugging and it did the same thing ;clicked on until I pushed “heat”.

Whet is going on ? It was working just fine prior to this.
