Author Topic: What tubs show the ACTUAL temp on the console? (Read 4263 times)

We just bought a Caldera Geneva and it will be delivered in a few weeks. �I am not even sure if the actual temperature is displayed or if it is just the set temp. �Does anyone know what spas show BOTH? �I just assumed this would be the case on my Caldera....was I wrong? �And if not is this a big deal???

Thanks.

Mine (Leisure Bay) briefly changes to the "set" temp when you push the temp ^ / v buttons, but otherwise always displays the water temp.

My Dynasty shows both. It was on option I deemed neccesary when I was buying a spa. My friends have a low end spa with no display at all and they have to open a panel to change the temp.

Mine does too, the default display is the current water temp.

My 2003 Caldera Geneva Utopia displays both.

My 2003 Caldera Geneva Utopia displays both.

That makes me feel better since I just bought the '06 Geneva. �Can you toggle back and forth or does it stay on one or the other? �I would think I would like the display to show the ACTUAL temp.

My Arctic does just as Badval's: shows actual temp unless you hit the up/down arrows to change the set temp.

Artesian does ... at least a 2005 does. Hit up or down arrow and the display turns to set temp.

Thanks for all the replies. I just went to the Caldera website and found the manual online. My tub displays the actual water temp most of the time except when lowering or raising the temp which will briefly display the set temp.

Our Bullfrog control pad operates the same way and I imagine this is a trait for all Balboa controllers

Hotspring doesn't display Actual Temperature for some reason. Their system utilizes a Ready Light that illuminates when your Set Temperatue and Actual Temperature are within 2 degrees or so. This seems to work for most people.

jacuzzi normally shows current temp, push a button to show set temp. BTW the current temp is always 1 degree low on my j-345 compared to my sharky thermometer
