I left my electric hot tub on for the night but I emptied the water before. How bad is this?

I emptied during the day, but forgot to turn it off, and only did it till the morning after. Will this damage the electric hot tub?

    Not at all. You should have no problem. Hot tubs have a flow sensor that keeps the heater from coming on. This protects the heating system. Pump can run for days or months without any problem.

    If you run the pump without water you will burn the seal and the pump will leak water.

    You will know the next time you try to turn it on.
