How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and lower water level below damaged areas to prevent further leakage.
Steps to address shell damage:
- Assess severity: Hairline surface cracks without leaks may be cosmetic; deeper cracks or blisters that leak require repair.
- Temporary seal: For minor leaks, a spa-safe underwater epoxy or sealant can provide a temporary fix.
- Permanent repair: Acrylic and fiberglass repairs require proper materials and technique to restore strength and appearance.
When to call a technician: Shell repairs should generally be performed by a professional experienced with Strong Spas shells.
