7 Beachcomber Hot Tub Errors & How To Troubleshoot Them

Here’s what your hot tub error code means

It’s rare to experience problems with your Beachcomber hot tub.

But if an error code does flash on your control panel, it shouldn’t be a mystery.

When you know what your error code means, you can easily explain the issue to a technician over the phone. We’ll know exactly how to fix it and you’ll be back in the tub in no time.

Beachcomber error codes

This message… …means… …and you should…
1) -F/-C Temperature unknown. Allow the pump to run for 2 minutes. The temperature will be displayed as the pump circulates the water.
2) Std/St

STANDARD

The hot tub is running in Standard Mode. Sit back and relax. Look for constellations if it’s clear enough.
3) Ecn/EC

ECONOMY

The hot tub is running in Economy Mode. Enjoy the water. Refer to the heating modes page in your owner’s manual to see what the heating modes mean.
4) SLP/SL

SLEEP

The hot tub is operating in sleep heating mode. If the display shows this message only, blinking, the hot tub is shut down. Switch to an active heating mode. The heating modes page in your owner’s manual can help you make the right pick.
5) G.F.C.I. breaker will not

stay on or trips

intermittently

If the hot tub is new, the load neutral wire has been inserted on the neutral buss in the panel. The load neutral wire should be inserted into the G.F.C.I. load neutral connection.

Or…
The heater element is defective and leaking current to the ground.
Or…
G.F.C.I. is worn out or defective.

 

Call Oakville Home Leisure to change the location of the load neutral wire.

6) Jet pump is surging

on high speed

The water level is too low on the hot tub (if it uses a et pump for filtering).

Or…

The plug in centre of the microfilter basket is not in place (if your hot tub is non-hush pump equipped).

Or…

Your RFM jet nozzles are pointed toward the large suction fittings in the foot well.

Raise the water level in the hot tub to at least half way up the skimmer opening.

Or…

Install a plug in basket.

Or…

Redirect nozzles up and away from the large suction fittings. Turn off all air control for RFM jets.

7) Neck jet does not

shut off

Internal portion of the two piece neck jet has been unscrewed by turning too far to the left. Carefully pry the faceplate off with a flat head screwdriver and thread the internal back in. Replace the face plate and tighten the internal portion by turning the face plate clockwise.
