The RetrO-HS is our aftermarket replacement solution for Hot Springs Spas control systems, specifically designed to fit models manufactured from 2001 onward. It matches the original control footprint and supports both standard 115V setups and the unique 5–6 wire configurations commonly found in Hot Springs installations. The system allows for basic operation of Hot Springs configurations that include two single-speed pumps and a circulation pump, maintaining core functionality. Built with our indirect contactor design, the RetrO-HS supports 6.0kW double-barrel heaters, offering safer operation and long-term durability—making it a dependable upgrade for aging OEM systems.
