In Response To: Re: Jets wont switch off! (stimo)

OK. I just finished chuckling a bit at your expense. The Softub does not have a heater per se. Instead, the Softub's have a heat exchanger wrapped around the motor (this can be good or bad) that collects the heat from the motor running and transfers it to the water. The end result is the tub must run continuously for a day or more in order to fully heat. So the short answer is leave it running. Send me another message if it overheats, but I think you are all set now.

: Does that mean that whenever the water is
: heating, the jets are on?
: I assumed that the water would heat without
: having all the jets firing all the time.
: Does this mean that while I am heating the
: water overnight for the first time, the jets
: will be going non stop all night, if so,
: when it gets to the correct temp will they
: automatically stop?

: Thanks for your help john and sorry to keep
: bugging you, you are an oracle of knowledge.

: This must be the longest thread ever!
