$550 Labor Cost To Replace the Digital Controller In My Hot Tub???!!
$450 for the Controller. $550 to install it.
F'k it, I'll do it myself. Spent about three hours removing the old controller, replacing the wiring connections to the two pumps 'cause the connectors are different, removing the old 120V ozonator (the 220V ozonator I paid for did NOT ship with the controller I got ), removing the old topside panel while trying to figure out a way to pass the new wire from the new topside panel to the Controller, vacuuming out a ton of leaves and debris that the Spa Tech probably would have left in place, verifying the jumpers are all set properly, cleaning the old plumbing connections, draining the very last of the standing water in the tub. Tomorrow I'll probably spend a couple of hours installing the new topside controller and trimming it out so it's watertight and looks good, and install the new digital controller. $100 bucks an hour for a project that's about a 3/10 level of difficulty... WIN. |

I fixed my ac condenser today. I fired up the ac for the first time this morning and the condenser fan didn't start..
Mice ate the thermostat wire insulation and the wires were touching inside the condenser control box. I vacuumed it all out and reran a new wire. It works like a charm... Last edited by Jeff '79; 05-10-2014 at 4:55pm. |

those extra wires, with all the fancy designer colors are just for show, they aren't needed.
