Spa is leaking water inside the equipment bay; puddles form under the spa.

Safety first: Turn OFF power at the breaker. Do not run pumps with low water level or active leaks.

• Locate the leak source:
  • Remove side panels to access the equipment bay.
  • Use a flashlight to inspect around pumps, heater, and unions while the spa is filled.
• Tighten unions:
  • Hand-tighten pump and heater unions; do not use excessive force.
  • If leaking persists, drain below the union and inspect/replace the O-ring.
• Inspect valves and fittings:
  • Check slice valves for leaks around stems and bodies.
  • Replace leaking valves or seals as needed.
• Repair cracked plumbing:
  • For small cracks, cut out the damaged section and glue in new PVC pipe and couplings using spa-rated PVC cement.
• Refill and test:
  • Refill spa, restore power, and monitor for leaks over several hours.
