Welcome to the forum.  More knowledgeable people will be along soon. I'm just kind of the zoo keeper.  When you say it trips off, do you mean a breaker trips, or it just shuts off?

Thanks for the Welcome  wmccall :)  When i switch it on to start heating, the motor trips after 5-10secs on main fuse box

 Could be a few things, I would start with un-hooking the heater first or the ozonator if it has one?     If your handy at all it's pretty easy to trouble shooting..
