Safety first: Turn off power and lower the water level below the leaking jet or fitting before disassembly.

Step 1 – Confirm leak location: Dry the area and observe carefully to ensure the leak is originating from the jet or fitting, not above it.
Step 2 – Access rear of shell: Remove the cabinet panel behind the leaking area to access the back of the jet body or fitting.
Step 3 – Tighten retaining nut: Gently tighten the large plastic nut on the back of the jet body or suction fitting. Do not overtighten, as this can crack the body.
Step 4 – Replace gasket: If tightening does not stop the leak, remove the jet body or fitting, clean the shell surface, and install a new gasket or apply a thin bead of spa-rated silicone sealant as specified by Nordic.
Step 5 – Reassemble and test: Refill the spa above the repaired fitting and check for leaks before closing the cabinet.

Water is leaking from around a specific jet or fitting in the spa shell.
