Hot Tub pump frozen

Plermpel

Hi Guys.

 

I did drain my new hot Tub in the fall because it uses too much energy throu the winter.

Now I wanted to fill IT for new years eve and Had to find out that there got a lot of water in it somehow, which is now ice.

I managed to get rid of that by filling IT with hot water, but there is still ice in the pumps and tubing, unfortunally also in the drain hose.

Anyone Had that Happening yet, what can I do?

Best bet is to get a hairdryer and gradually warm everything up, the drain line will be difficult unless you have access to all of the frozen parts.

My Current Setup:

AMD Ryzen 5900X

Kingston HyperX Fury 3200mhz 2x16GB

MSI B450 Gaming Plus

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo

EVGA RTX 3060 Ti XC

Samsung 970 EVO Plus 2TB

WD 5400RPM 2TB

EVGA G3 750W

Corsair Carbide 300R

Arctic Fans 140mm x4 120mm x 1

I did now put a hot air gun into one of the vents of a side panel and left it running at about 100°C.

It's -11°C outside and the inside of the tub has now about 10°C. I hope it will unfreeze until tomorrow midnight.
