Turbo Air Blower Problems

  1. Does Turbo / Air Blower turn on. If NO, check unit plugged in / Temperature display illuminated. If Air Blower does not turn on, Go to GFCI trouble shooting section. If Blower turns on go to next step.
  2. If Blower turns on for a second, then trips GFCI, go to GFCI troubles shooting section. Blower may be wet.
  3. If Blower turns on, but does not blow air all the way around the bubble ring in spa, or shuts off by itself after a minute or two, check union oring tape has been removed during initial installation. Two pieces of criss-crossed tape are placed over the lower union connection from the factory. This is used to keep the union o-ring in place and falling out during shipping. If BOTH pieces are not removed, the air check valve will not be allowed to fully open. Result will be little or no air flow into the bubble ring in spa, and blower overheating. Remove tape and allow blower to cool for 1 hour & retry. Be careful to keep union o-ring in it's groove or spa will leak at that connection.
  4. If it is verified blower motor is dry in GFCI troubleshooting, and GFCI trips when Turbo/ Air Blower button is pushed, Blower motor may need to be replaced. Send Power Pack to service center for repair.
  5. If Blower runs and above steps have been checked, with spa drained, disconnect Blower Union nut from Powerpack and pull pack away from spa a few inches. Turn blower on and see if air flows from check valve fitting ( Large lower connection on Power Pack. A 1/4" round peg should pop out of center of check valve and you should feel air flow when you put you hand in front of fitting. If not, check valve could be stuck in closed position, or check valve spring rusted shut. Replace check valve or send Power Pack into service center for repair.
