💬 Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I know if this topside is compatible with my spa? A: The SpaTouch 2 is compatible with all Balboa BP Series systems that support the TP800 and/or TP900 topsides. Check your spa pack model number on the control box inside your spa cabinet. If your system only supports the TP400 or TP600, this panel will partially work but some screens may not display correctly. Contact Parts4Tubs if you are unsure.

Q: Is the overlay included? A: The overlay (MPN 13668) is part of the complete topside assembly (MPN 57220). For the naked topside without overlay, the MPN is 57219. Please confirm which version you are ordering. Contact Parts4Tubs for clarification.

Q: What is the cable length? A: Please refer to the manufacturer documentation or contact Parts4Tubs to confirm the cable length for this model before ordering.

Q: Will this display error codes? A: Yes, the SpaTouch 2 displays all error messages, warnings, reminders, and information messages from the BP Series spa pack. Message codes range from M015 to M037 and cover heater faults, sensor issues, flow problems, and system alerts. Refer to your spa pack manual or the User Guide PDF for specific meanings.

Q: Can I install this myself? A: If you are comfortable working with spa electronics and can safely isolate the power supply, DIY installation is possible. The panel requires a minimum 10° mounting angle and must be installed on the exterior portion of the spa tub. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with spa electrical systems.

Q: Does the panel support Wi-Fi? A: Yes, the SpaTouch 2 is Wi-Fi enabled. A Wi-Fi indicator icon on the main screen shows the connection status.

Q: Can I change the language on the display? A: Yes, the SpaTouch 2 supports seven languages: English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Czech, and Swedish. The language can be changed through the Settings menu.

Q: What happens when the display goes dark? A: The SpaTouch 2 enters sleep mode after a period of inactivity (default 30 minutes, adjustable from 1 to 60 minutes). Simply touch anywhere on the screen to wake the panel. This is normal operation and helps extend the display life.

Q: What is the difference between Ready and Rest mode? A: In Ready mode, the spa maintains the set temperature at all times by periodically circulating water (polling every 30 minutes). In Rest mode, the spa only heats during programmed filter cycles, which can reduce energy consumption.
