Possible Causes

Loose internal fittings, Air in lines causing cavitation, Pump mounted loosely in housing, Resonance with spa frame

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the spa before tightening any fittings.

  • Bleed air: Remove airlocks by loosening the upper hose connection until water flows steadily, then retighten.
  • Tighten fittings: Hand-tighten any accessible unions or collars that feel loose.
  • Check placement: Ensure the pump/heater unit is on a stable, level surface and not touching walls or objects that can amplify vibration.

If vibration remains severe, internal mounting or pump issues may be present and should be inspected by a technician.
