What to do if your RCD trips

Xavier Labelle

NOTE: This article is for our hardwired spas (non plug and play)

If you notice that your RCD is tripping and shutting down your hot tub then your spa may have a faulty component (usually a heater). This can occur as soon as you attempt to turn on the breaker or during the spa’s Pr cycle. The first step you will need to do is ensure that your electrical line is adequate by calling in your electrician to test your line. This will rule out any electrical installation problems and guarantee that the power supply for your spa is correct. If your power is correct then you will need to give us a call to organize a service call and one of our technicians will come out to take a look at the problem.

UK Spa Buying and Ownership Guide

After reading What to do if your RCD trips, many customers ask the same practical questions: what hot tub size fits best, how much does a hot tub cost to run, and which model gives the best long-term value in UK weather. The right answer normally comes from comparing insulation quality, jet layout, seating comfort, and ongoing maintenance support, not just headline price.

Canadian Spa Company UK supplies hot tubs, swim spas, saunas, replacement hot tub covers, filters, chemicals and accessories with nationwide delivery. If you are planning to buy a hot tub UK homeowners use year-round, shortlist models by intended use first: daily recovery, social entertaining, or family wellness. Then compare power requirements, cover quality, and service access so ownership stays simple over time.
