Thanks for posting your reply with the fix. Now I have to find one! Will check with the Hotsprings dealer down the street. Really did not want to part with my tub...it has been a great one! Thanks again! Navman

Just thought ...posting a pic of the problem on the Classic tub broken coupler. This flex pipe has a plastic weld of sorts that holds coupler it is not removable ...well yeah it has to be removed for replacement. Question is can it be repaired replaced or am I doomed? Cheers to the New Year!!!! Navman

Hey everybody new to this forum... so howdy! So have been working on my spa it was leaking where the couplers join the housing. So ordered new housing, o rings, new pump seal installed by dealer. Put it together and the couplers still leaked. Ok so sealed with clear silicon in the couplers and put it back together. Only one coupler is leaking so took it apart ( getting good at taking apart and putting together) put clear silicon and retightened let dry over nite. Today filled tub and hit the jet button and it still leaked some drops. Grabbed my channel locks and put some ooph to it and the coupler split open water gushing. So Hot Springs how do you put a new coupler on to the flex pipe top location or should I call the dealer to make repair? This tub was purchased in 1995 and has been a very good tub for us for a long time. Needless to say we are really bummed. Anybody got anything on this? Navman
