Before you buy — quick checklist

  • Confirm your control pack is a Balboa VL260 system — check the label on your control box before ordering
  • Verify the physical keypad shape matches: rectangle with rounded sides and an oval display window
  • Locate your existing keypad's part number on the back of the panel or in your spa's documentation to confirm G8226
  • Check the connector type and pin count on your existing topside cable — it must match the G8226's harness
  • Measure the cutout dimensions in your spa cabinet to ensure the new panel drops in flush

Reading the checklist now prevents 90% of returns. Worth the 60 seconds.
