Ask 'Dr. Spa' Q & A Message Board

Hello,

I'm having problems with the control panel on my Sundance hot tub. Specifically, its buttons have become unresponsive. I have been advised that I need to replace the control panel.

I live in Spain, so my mains frequency is 50Hz. I understand that Sundance make SOME components specifically for 50 or 60 Hz systems. I know for a fact that the main circuit board is easily interchangeable between the two, via the jumper settings. It just so happens that a replacement panel from the States (60Hz mains) is much cheaper than a panel from the UK (50Hz mains). So ideally, I want to purchase my replacement panel from the States.

So my questions are:
1. Do Sundance make 50 and 60Hz specific control panels?
2. Surely if the circuit board is switchable between the 2 line frequencies then the control panel is unaffected?

Thank you very much for reading
Malcolm
