I had a hot tub installed a few years back which was working well. I would set the temp at 104 but when I opened it, the temperature reading was 106 which felt great. At times it might have dipped to 105 but generally it was 106 it was perfect. I don't have a whole bunch of time to lounge in a tub so 5 to 10 minutes of 106 when there is snow or it is cold outside, is perfect. When I get out, I still feel warm when putting the hot tub cover back on and I go in nice and relaxed, without getting cold. I had the pump replaced because there was some issue with the tub and now it won't go past 104. I also had the cover replaced. After getting used to 106, water temp at 104 is a joke. I feel chilly when I get out, even if the outside temp is 50 or so. Again, I don't stay in a tub for a long time - 10 minutes is sufficient. So, I want to know what I can do to get the temp back up to 106. Other than replacing the pump, and also the cover, I haven't done anything to the tub. It's a Chinese brand - the guy that services it says that it is a "Dr. Wellness" tub. Anybody got any quick fixes? I don't want to go into the circuitry and do the whole resistor override thing. Basically, my tub used to show "106" when I had it set to 104. I'm hoping to find that utopia again. Any help is appreciated. I don't want a lecture about why 104 should be the max and all the rest. I'm just looking for an easy to implement solution, if that is possible. Thanks in advance.
