Possible Causes
Cracked jet body behind shell, Leaking manifold in foam, Split hose in inaccessible area
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power when water level is below skimmer or jets to avoid running pumps dry.
- Confirm leak: Mark the water level and monitor over 24 hours with pumps off. A drop indicates a leak.
- Inspect accessible areas: Remove side panels and look for damp insulation or puddles. Follow moisture to its highest point.
- Excavate foam: Carefully remove wet foam around the suspected leak area to expose plumbing. Use a long knife or saw with caution.
- Repair fittings: Replace cracked jet bodies, manifolds, or hoses using PVC cement and Aquavia-compatible parts. Re-foam or insulate the area after confirming the leak is fixed.
