Want
to take advantage of personal spa at home? If yes, then you should
invest in Balboa spa kits. However, the circuit boards are the important
part of your hot tub. Earlier, they are made of air switches and relays
to turn on and off things. Currently, circuit boards and wires are the
brain of your spa. They control everything from your filtration system
to your lights and everything in between.
Over
the time, Balboa circuit boards experience wear and tear. Therefore,
you have to understand your spa control system circuit board so that you
can properly identify the circuit board part number. When you find the
sticker unattached to the circuit board, you can still identify it by
the primary chipset part number.
If
a sticker is still attached to the circuit board, you’ll identify the
Balboa part number on it easily. It will be the first set of number that
starts with the number “5”. The number will be either five digits long
or five digits proceeded by a dash and two additional digits like 54115
or 54115-02.
In
addition, you can do search this number to find the right replacement
for the circuit board. If you find it, you’re more than likely to
replace the spa control system yourself. It may sound big; but it may
not be. Balboa provides perfectly engineered Balboa Value Pack Retrofit
Kits. In short and simple words, they are the complete spa control
system replacement solutions for your hot tub.
In
most situations, you may find that replacing the entire control system
or spa pack is actually less costly than the circuit board. When it
comes to replacing the entire control system, you’ll give a new lease on
life to your hot tub.
If
the circuit board costs over $250, it’s suggested to discuss with your
solar installer about the replacing the entire system. However, the
price of retrofit kits starts at $300 and they’re relatively easy to
replace. Keep in mind that, an experienced spa technician is must for
the spa circuit board replacement.
Over
time, the sticker attached to the circuit board becomes old and cracked
and the adhesive used on the sticker makes it to fall off of the
circuit board completely. If it happens, you can identify the circuit
board through the primary chipset number, as present below on the right.
Remember,
the chipset number is the top set of numbers. For example, the chipset
number will be LITELDR1A. You can contact with Northern Lights solar
installer to identify your circuit board and choose by the chipset
method.
Moreover,
the circuit board of your Balboa hot tub kit is one of the many parts
that make your hot tub a wonderful bubbly soak; but keeping it in top
condition and having the right one is the difference between a bucket of
water and backyard oasis.
