So I'm resurrecting a 2001 Mountain Spring Spas Classic model 7-8 person tub (I think the company is out of business now) and it needs some jet internals. Besides a dozen broken/missing jet nozzles, the only mechanical piece that's suspect is the ozone generator, but I'm leaning towards going with chlorine anyway, so I may spend that money on a drop-in salt water chlorine generator.
I've been able to determine that I have all Waterway jets. All but one are adjustable, snap-in mini jets. I'm going to replace/lube all the flow control o-rings (I bought a wrench), and I intend to replace all the missing/broken back jets with the pulsator style, but that leaves the five jets on the floor of the tub... four foot jets and one central large jet, which brings me to my questions:
1. The four foot jets in the bottom center of the tub are the larger snap-in mini jet style. Any thoughts/recommendations on those? The old ones were also the pulsator style.
2. The large central jet body is a Power Storm. I believe that Mountain Springs put an "Old Faithful" jet in this spot in later models. Which Power Storm would you all recommend? I'm thinking the directional one to create a large upflow in the center of the tub, but am looking for opinions. It's the single most expensive jet in the tub, so I only want to buy one.
What a steep learning curve, but it's so going to be worth it once the tub is cleaned, sanitized, and ready to use!
Thanks!
