New Hottub Board

[matthewy]

The board in my hottub went and I am trying to find a replacement, but I am not sure about the specifics. My board is a Balboa V500z P/N22972_E. My hottub has two pumps, a heater (of course), LED lights (that I dont care about), a speaker system (which again I don't care about), and an ozonator (I think its called). Its also 240.

I have seen many boards that are VS500 and VS501. Are they interchangeable? For example, will this one work?

Balboa - 54369-01 Circuit Board, CS6100B, VS500Z - 54369, 33-54369-K, 54357, G1152, BBG1152

Also, if it says NO AIR BLOWER, does that mean it wont make the bubbles?

Welcome to TFP.

Maybe @RDspaguy will have ideas when he wanders by.

The 501 and 510 are able to operate more stuff than the 500. Verify that your topside is compatible and it should be fine.
I recommend a full control system, rather than just replacing the board. You get a new heater, sensors, and topside for less than you'd spend on them individually, and you get a decent warranty. If you plan to keep the tub for a while it's the smart choice.
