Spa system with flow control feature

A control system for a bathing unit, the bathing unit including a receptacle for holding water, the receptacle having at least one outlet port and at least one inlet port, said control system comprising:

• a) a circulation system through which water can flow between the outlet port and the inlet port of the receptacle;
• b) a jetting pump assembly suitable for pumping water through said circulation system, said jetting pump assembly having a motor driving a pump, the motor being configured for operating at a plurality of different motor speeds within a range of possible motor speeds;
• c) a controller in communication with said jetting pump assembly, said controller having:
• i) a memory unit;
• ii) a user interface configured for:
• 1) enabling a human operator to specify a set of parameters to create a user configured setting and to store the user configured setting in the memory unit for later recall, wherein the user interface enables the human operator to independently specify a particular first motor speed and a particular second motor speed when creating the user configured setting;
• 2) allowing selection of a setting amongst settings stored in the memory unit, the settings stored in the memory unit including the user configured setting and at least one other setting;
• said controller being responsive to the selection of the user configured setting from the memory unit via the user interface for causing the motor driving the pump of the jetting assembly to vary its speed based in part on the specified particular first motor speed and the specified particular second motor speed.

• c) a controller in communication with said jetting pump assembly, said controller having:
• i. a memory unit;
• ii. a user interface configured for enabling a human operator of the bathing unit to create a user configured jetting mode at least in part by selecting independently:
• (1) a particular first speed from the range of possible motor speeds;
• and
• (2) a particular second speed from the range of possible motor speeds;
• iii. a processor in communication with said user interface for causing the motor driving the pump of the jetting assembly to vary its speed based in part on the selected particular first speed and the selected particular second speed.
