How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power and lower water level below the leaking jet before repair.

  • Confirm leak location: Remove the cabinet panel behind the suspected jet and inspect for moisture around the jet body.
  • Tighten retaining nut: If accessible, gently tighten the large plastic nut on the back of the jet body. Do not overtighten.
  • Replace gasket or body: If the leak persists, the jet body may need to be removed, cleaned, and reinstalled with a new gasket and spa‑rated silicone sealant.

Accessing jet bodies often requires foam removal and is best done by an experienced spa technician.
