Hello,
I've bought a house with an in-ground spa, which has 2 air buttons located on the side.
Previous owner didn't leave me spa manual so i wonder if anybody could tell me what are sequences to control the spa?
I managed to use spa, but it took me about 7-10 minutes button pushing each time and i couldn't memorize correct sequences.
I have 2 air switches Len Gordon FF-100.

Normally, this will be:
1. Pump Jets, Blower On.
2. Pump Jets On.
3. Blower On.
4. Off.
Assuming that you have a gas or externally mounted (and separate) electric heater, the heater will turn on based on the thermostat setting, and having water pressure from the pump.

Usually, the second button will be for a spa light.
If you don't have one of these, you'll need to follow the air tube to where it ends and see what it's hooked up to.
If you need further assistance please let us know.

Are you sure it's an FF-100 and not a FF-1000 ?
You say you have 2 air switches. The buttons you push are air BUTTONS (they connect to an electrical mechanism called an air switch). Do you have 2 air switches, or 2 air buttons?

Dr. Spa,
I've just checked - they are FF-100.
And now i'm not sure if i correctly identified air tubes, because those 2 tubes (or what look like tubes) which are connected to switches come from 2 pump motors. So each air switch is connected to separate pump.
And yes, i have 2 air buttons and 2 air switches.

I have a spa that uses an electric heater with a blower and a two speed motor. It is run all by an air switch.
Question is...
What is the sequence order on the air button usually supposed to be for this type of spa? It only has one air button. It is made by Jacuzzi.
Does the heater turn on from this switch, or does it turn on based on the thermostat setting? It is an internal 110VAC flow through style electric heater.
Thanks,
Jason
