I've just acquired an older Leisure Bay 3 person tub. The shell and skirt are both in good shape, and the two speed motor and air are supposed to work. Problem is the heater and controller were taken out and misplaced. This works on a low flow heater with a tap off the main pump. I've managed to locate a new heater, but no luck finding a controller to run everything. Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks,

Steven

are you sure it's a low flow heater? low flow heaters use a special 3/4" circulation pump to flow the water through it (hence the low-flow). Most single pump systems use a standard (or as some like to call them, high flow) heaters. You can easily tell by the size of the inlet and outlet of the heater. if it's 1 1/2 inch or larger, you got the standard. You haven't mentioned what you do have for a control system. I would suggest at this point to locate a spa pack less heater and pump to run your system, assuming you have nothing now.
