How quickly does the temperature drop and what's the ambient temperature? Sadly some spas (the cheaper ones) are unable to retain their temperature for long periods of time, especially in the colder months.

it depends on the outside ambient temperature, when you get in and run the jets, if it's cold outside the water temperature will drop quickly. Sometimes the small heating elements just can't keep up. If you have a heating element that is smaller than 5.5Kw, it will have trouble keeping up. Check to see what size the heater is. Also, is this sort of a new problem or have you been noticing this all along?it depends on the outside ambient temperature, when you get in and run the jets, if it's cold outside the water temperature will drop quickly.

just a guess but id say your temperature controller has failed and it went over temperature , the safety cut in to save the tub (heat suspended) could be anything in heating circuits from heat elements to temp probes
calcium will stick to heating element 1st and make it less able to heat water , eventually it will consume the entire surface and insulate the water from touching it and warming it and finally overheat it and cause burnout , high calcium (limestone) is usually a condition that occurs when filling via a well or stream , consider getting a load of pre softened water from a municipal water system , there should be a list of haulers in your area that can provide this service
If you found a solution to this problem, can you tell me what it was? I have the same thing. Its a Marquis Spririt and it just doesn't get hot enough. There must be a way to "trick" the thermostat into letting the heater run longer
This would indicate that the heater relay is stuck in the closed posistion giving constant power to the heating element.
Either that or thermostat dial is broken
Same problem here. I read the manual very carefully. "OptiDry", "ExtraDry", "EcoDry", "condensation drying" -- lots of fancy words to cover the simple fact -- they DO NOT DRY the dishes. There is no heating element. I wish they would just state this up-front. Air drying the dishes for 24 hours after each wash is not workable for most users...
