The water temp was 80* Tuesday morning when I left and hit 96* some time that day. I got home last night, no leaks and temp was holding at 96*

I bought my hot tub in 2004. I'm on my 3rd pump/motor combo. When the pump seals let go. It takes out the motor.

Found out that the amount of chlorine used has an effect on the seals. Instead of bringing the level up in one shot. I dose it twice weekly. Got the new cover on with the hydraulic lift. That lift is NICE!
