Information Specific For Gatsby/Imperial Spas:
|
If you have a spa built prior to 1999, you
probably have a dial temperature control and
manual push buttons on the topside or similar.
Gatsby/Imperial Spas moved to the next
generation in 1999; completely electronic.
They phased out and discontinued stock of the older system.
There are no longer OEM parts for the older
systems. To repair any control box parts
or the
topside requires replacing the complete
control system with a current electronic
generation system.
Therefore, when
you have a failure of the topside or
electronic control box, you have to decide
what to do. You have several choices. The
simplest is to install the system
Gatsby/Imperial spas began using in their
newer and current spas. You would buy a new
control box and topside. You would continue to
use your circulation pump, regular pumps, and
heater. The new system fits into the same
position as your existing one.

With
these systems, you install a new electronic system to
control your pumps, light, blower, etc. Some kits
provide you with the topside, control system,
heater, and cords (see individual descriptions). You will gain current technology plus a
digital topside to set the spa exactly where you
want the temperature to be.
Warning: Although these systems are designed
well, not everyone is qualified to install.
You have to be able to first install the
control box, configure the control box, wire
equipment to it (unless you are replacing a
matching system), and connect or modify your
incoming power. If you doubt your ability,
it would be wise to consider purchasing the
control box and have a local service company
install for you. |

Best Choice For Units With
Separate Circ Pump and
Heater |
|
This is a excellent replacement system
for any Gatsby/Imperial/BlueRidge Spa
IF you have a small
circulation pump and separate vertical
heater. This unit will allow you to keep
these along with existing pump(s),
light, and ozonator. You
get a new electronic control system
(pictured), a new electronic topside
with placard to cover existing holes,
and cords. |

be the # on the upper left corner of the
outside cover of the control box. It will
include a serial #. Match to first column.
This is the complete control box, topside

How We
Can Help |
|
| If you can supply us with
digital pictures, we will review what you will
have and what you would have to do to |
| your spa to make it ready
to retro-fit. For some models you will have to remove |
| some parts and redirect
some plumbing. This is where we can help... and
it's free. |
| We can explain what you
need to do and how intensive it will be.
Even before you decide to
do it. |
| The
biggest change on some units is that
you will have to add a 50a, 240vac GFCI to protect |
| users. GFCI means ground
fault circuit interrupt. It is mandatory for
safety and |
| code reasons. These can
be purchased at hardware stores or installed by
a |
| licensed electrician.
If your spa is already running on 220-240vac, likely you do have such |
| a protection on your
existing electrical line already |
| installed. Replacement of
this retro-fit into existing electronic systems
usually does |
| not require much change. |
| Send your photos to
bbouman@clearcreekspas.com so we can help.
We can |
| walk you through what you
need to do... and it's free. |
*Caution
must be taken about matching pumps/blower/ozonators/circ
pumps with your existing system. For example, both
systems require the #1 pump to be 2 speed; either 110v
or 220v. On few models you will have to convert the #1 single speed
pump to a 2 speed pump; either 110v or 220v. You will
have to match the
ozonator voltage to equal the #1 pump you use, either
110v or 220v. Please contact Bruce at
bbouman@clearcreekspas.com to confirm you are
ordering the right system and any cautions you need to
be aware of. As in any change of systems, extreme care
must be taken to install correctly. Mis-wiring can
damage and void the control box's warranty.
