gnbrian Posted March 4, 2013 Report Posted March 4, 2013 I am new to the hot tub world and have alot to learn. On my new aquired Vita Bijou there are 2 jets right in the back of the knee location on the lounger. The bezel on both of these jets has come off and I think they are broken since I don't see a way to reattach. How are they attached or how do I remove the entire jet so I can replace. Thanks in advance Quote
Spa_Guru Posted March 4, 2013 Report Posted March 4, 2013 Jet internals or faces can usually be obtained on line or thru your dealer. www.spabrothers.com Replacing the entire jet is a little more in-depth than replacing internals, and requires you to drain the spa, and in some cases turn it up on it's side depending on access. Usually there are two lines going to each jet, one larger line for water, one smaller for air, you will need to cut away any insulation that is in the way, obtain short lengths of tubing/pipe identical to what your spa uses and splice both lines after installing the new jet assy. The jet installs with the jet face as the "bolt", and the jet body as the "nut" and the shell is captured in between. Pro tip, toss the rubber gasket and use 100% clear silicon sealant to seal the jet to the shell. Quote
gnbrian Posted March 5, 2013 Author Report Posted March 5, 2013 I don't think the entire jet body needs to be replaced, but I cannot see how to reover the internal,if there really is one. Are some jets actually just a simple port with an eyeball directional fitting? I could show in pictures, but cannot post here? Quote
