This is the second year I've had this spa. I filled it and turned it on and let it run about 12 hours and the temperature never moved from 80 degrees which is what it said when I turned it on. The motor also sounds rough. Last year, when it was almost brand new, the same thing happened and they replaced the cord. Any ideas?

Sounds like the pump is jammed or the motor bearings are frozen. If you can take it apart, try the pump first. The bearings on modern motors are pretty reliable. Get everything cleaned and lubed and put it back together. Good luck...Lee

You need to check your temp sensor and your high limit. Both are tubes that slide into the plumbing on or near your heater. If this is a tube heater then they are probally at on each end of the heater and will have small wires coming from them that go back to the control board. Farely common problem and easy enough to fix with replaceing them both. A number of models wire them together so they come as one part. Good luck.

This is normal with the dream maker spa. The dream maker spas are poorly insulated, and only run 120 volts with a very small heater.
When the unit is first filled, the hot tub will not heat full time either. Most new hot tubs will have freeze protection below 50 degrees F. They will recirculate automatically using the friction and the pumps heat to warm the water above 50 degrees, and then the heating unit will kick on. These hot tubs do not heat while the jets are on high either, so once you are in it using the jets on high, the temperature will start to fall.
Now that you are up to 80 degrees, it should heat up fairly quick however.

Yes, the jets will run anytime the heater is operational. This is neccessary to keep the plumbing from melting, and also to evenly distribute the heated water. Most hot tubs only take 4-5 hours to heat up, but the easy spa takes very long because they use a very small heating element. Usually only 1.5KW.
