Water around the base of the spa after heavy rain, but water level in spa does not drop.

Safety: Ensure the equipment bay stays dry to protect electrical components.

• Step 1 – Check water level: Mark the water level and monitor for 24–48 hours to confirm it is stable.
• Step 2 – Inspect site grading: Ensure the pad under the spa is level and drains away from the equipment side.
• Step 3 – Improve drainage: Add gravel, drains, or regrade the area to prevent standing water under the spa.

If the spa water level begins to drop, treat it as a leak and investigate further.
