Possible Causes

Missing or cracked drain plug O-rings, Loose drain plugs, Cross-threaded plugs, Debris on sealing surface

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power and allow pressure to release before removing drain plugs.

Steps to repair:

  • Remove plugs: Unscrew the Jacuzzi pump drain plugs and inspect the O-rings.
  • Replace O-rings: Install new O-rings if they are flattened, cracked, or missing.
  • Clean threads: Wipe debris from the plug and housing threads.
  • Reinstall: Hand-tighten the plugs snugly. Do not overtighten to avoid cracking the housing.

Persistent leaks may indicate a cracked housing around the drain port, requiring pump housing replacement.
