Add a spa control system to your cedar hot tub

The intelligent core behind your wellness experience

A Northern Lights Hot Tub is about more than just warm water, it’s about control, comfort, and experience.
With the professional Balboa BP spa control system, your cedar hot tub is transformed into a fully integrated wellness solution.

This system acts as the central brain of your setup, ensuring that everything works seamlessly together: from heating and filtration to circulation and hydrotherapy.

What is a spa control system?

A spa control system is the central unit that manages and automates all functions of your hot tub. It has a built-in heater that can be used either as a main heater or as a backup heater in a hybrid system, e.g. combined with a heat pump. 

With this system, you can:

  • Control water temperature
  • Manage pumps and jets
  • Set filtration cycles
  • Automate the entire operation

Everything is controlled through the digital topside control panel, installed right next to the hot tub so you can easily adjust settings without leaving the water.
