Flo-Thru Heater Element
If your spa fails to heat the water properly, the heater element
should always be checked.
Defective elements that have been damaged by poor water balance
usually trips the GFCI when the heat comes on. Elements that have
just stopped working just don’t heat.
Most heater elements go bad because of improper water chemistry. To
help you improve your water chemistry, we recommend the book,
Spaaaahhhhhh The Owner's Guide to Understanding Spas and Hot Tubs
.
Regardless of the age of your spa pack, if the only thing broken is
the heater element, the economical thing to do is to replace the
heater element.
Our heater element fits all Nu Wave spa packs, or for any pack that
takes a universal hi-flo element. You can select between a 5.5 kw

To determine whether a universal element will work in your
controller, remove your existing element from the controller. If the
element has two probes on it that drop into the control box and has
the same shape as the one above, then it will work in your
controller. If it does not look the same, it is not a universal
element and will not work.
NOTE: It is recommended to use similar wattage heater element as the
original previously installed to avoid unforeseen problems.
Warranty: This heater element has a 3-month warranty.
