does the filter or tub make noise when a filter cycle is running?

Thank you so much, why is this type of info so hard to find? I appreciate you posting this!

Our hot tub installing person recommended this video. Thanks for recording it, but I have a question. What is filter one and filter two? I know I can set different times for filter one and filter two but are those actually one filter running time and then the second filter running time? Or is it simply schedule one and schedule two meaning no matter what the settings are and both filters are always running when I set them. I'm concerned about the second filter being turned off is an issue? Am I misinterpreting these settings?

I had that error message when refilling tub which was caused by an airlock. I removed the filter, placed my submersible pump in the tub and put the outlet hose into the hole where the filter screws in. Cleared it on about one second. 😊 I had heard you might be able to use a hose with a strong enough flow or try to plung water through the filter hole by turning the filter upside down and plunging. I tried those but only was successful with my submersible.

Thank you. I'm not sure how I got into a setting where the max temp was restricted; I think I hit the LIGHT button too soon after hitting one of the temperature buttons or something, Turning off the power then turning it back on did not re-set this. Found your video and was able to get it back after a few tries. It wasn't clear to me at 0:22 in your video if you are hitting WARM and LIGHT simultaneously, or if you hit and release the WARM button then hit the LIGHT button, or if you hit and hold the WARM button, then hit the LIGHT button and release. At any rate, after trying it a few different ways I eventually stumbled upon it.

This control board is a joke. Had spa for six weeks. Called the service department at the dealer in St. Louis about how this control has a mind of its own. Service, which gets an A+ for servicing a D+ hot tub, told me this is the biggest complaint from their customers and there is no solution. When I explained this control has a mind of its own…..pumps go on, go off, lights go on and off, they told me that any drop of water that hits this control, the control thinks it’s you. My wife and I sit there with the pumps on an almost laugh watching this thing respond to drops of water. Also, I told service that sometimes I can’t turn the pumps off. They explained that the controls don’t like wet hands. At this point all I can do is warn people not to buy this crap.

Any idea why the jets would just shut off. First time owners of the Rio.

So when you turn the filter 2 off does it stay off.? Do you have to turn it back on?

We have just pushed our hot tub. Which one is filter 1 and which is 2? Does it matter on the placement? We still need to set our time and filters up

OMG! Thank you so much! I could find nothing in the owner's manual that addressed how to unlock the spa (I don't even know how I locked it in the first place!).

How do you set the time or does it start at 12pm when you turn on the tub

Please do a video for Winter settings ! I was told to run my tub for 6-8 hours only, as it only needs to (because factory setting is 24 hours). Do I just do this on opposite??

Hi. I appreciate your videos. They really helped me out! But there’s another problem. My spa heater works, but the temp keeps lowering back down so it’s not maintaining the desired temp. Can you please help me? Much appreciated.

How do I keep the lights on my Tropic Seas spa in continuous color rotation and can I set the jet’s to run continuously until I shut them down?

So, I love this video! It was extremely helpful for changing my settings for the summer. I just assumed there would be a video to change it back, but when the cool weather hit, I couldn’t find the video to reverse it. From the comments here, I am not the only one. I went back and rewatched this video to see what the settings were BEFORE Zachary changed them. I assume those are the non- summer settings. They are: filter 1 - on at 8:00 am for a duration of 12 hours, filter 2 - on at 8:00 pm for a duration of 12 hours. Hope that is right! 😅

Hi, My topside isn't exactly like yours. Under Jets 1 & 2 instead of "flip," mine has the "Light" button. So far I cannot get into my MENU

You have helped me so much thank you🙌🏻🙌🏻

Can you please let us know what the regular/default filter hours are?

for some reason the temperature of my spa is stuck at 101l even when i change it down, (it goes down on flashing screen) but still on 101 . any idea how to lower the temp. thank you in advance

Well that just saved me hours or time I didn’t spend trying to figure it out on my own lol thanks buddy!

Does anybody know if there is a way to brighten the display because you could hardly see it

It was so frustrating going through the documentation. thank you for sharing this video made it very simple to operate.

Brilliant. THANK YOU

Thank you for this video! In this example when we shut Filter 2 isn't it then always off? Why do we set it for 16 hrs if it's off? Also is it possible to post a Winter mode for those of us that want to switch it back? Thank you!

What do I do to go back to winter hours? I watched your video & set hours for summer. Now do I leave the same hours as summer but have filter 2 to “on” ?

How do I set back to non summer settings? I always get stuck at fltr 2

My modes stopped showing Modes, Time, Fltr... is that a Lock issue?

My system doesn’t do that. No option to change times? What am I missing

Good explanation but how do you set the clock?

Thank you for posting this!! Staying at a cabin and the range accidentally locked. This was so helpful. 👍🏼

Thanks Zach for the video, saw your message today, I will look into it this afternoon.

Thank you so much. I was stuck. Not now
