Spa is leaking water inside cabinet or onto ground

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker and do not run pumps with low water level. Be cautious of slippery surfaces.

• 1. Identify leak source:
  • Remove side panels and inspect while the spa is filled.
  • Look around pump unions, heater unions, slice valves, and jet bodies.
• 2. Tighten unions:
  • Hand-tighten any loose pump or heater unions; do not overtighten.
• 3. Replace gaskets/O-rings:
  • If a union or slice valve continues to leak, replace its gasket or O-ring.
• 4. Jet body leaks:
  • If water is seeping around a jet on the shell, the jet body gasket may be compromised.
  • This often requires draining the spa and accessing the rear of the jet body to reseal or replace it.
• 5. Structural or inaccessible leaks: For leaks within foam insulation or under the shell, contact a Wellis service technician for leak detection and repair.
