Hi, I have a Balboa heater system BP6013G1 in my hot tub. Since I have solar panels, I would like to put all the unused power into the hot tub. If there is only 500W available, it should also put that 500W in the heater. I don’t think the Balboa app can do this. It’s only ON/OFF. No power control…

It’s in Dutch, but shouldn’t be an issue anymore these days: [image] Boiler voor combi-ketel tapwatervoorziening plaatsen Vragen & hulp Daar er vast techneuten zijn die e.e.a. weten of hebben uitgezocht, deze vraag. Ik zou graag, zo simpel mogelijk, een boiler…

Most Spas have target temperature, but the heating element(s) are with fixed power. You would neet to make significant electrical changes to your spa. Don’t know if the Balboa spa control unit will detect and fault the heating element if it isn’t working the way it should. I have Balboa controlles …

Thanks for the tip! I’m from Belgium so the language is nog problem :slight_smile: There are some good tips in that topic!

Thanks for the info! I do have a filter setup which is’nt connected to the Balboa system. There is a seperate pump for that. I’ll have to look for a heating element which I can put in line with that. + a temperature sensor. I think this will be the simplest and hopfully cheapest setup.

Lucky you. I’ve been thinking about setting up an additional filtering system, maybe add heating to it to optimize all available solar for it.
