  1. So, in my moment of stupidity, I snapped off the stupid air filter intake when trying to trouble shoot low bubbles. Once I did that, I got a mega load of bubbles. I took some cotton from a q-tip and pushed it in with a paper-clip then added some more and taped around it. The bubbles are now like when it was first installed (2 years old). Will this work or is there something else I can do that may stay on better?
  2. Got it all back together and so far, so good. I had to replace some rotted wood too where the cover cradle goes in. Have a brand new cover on it now too! Once again, saved myself from getting angry and buying a new one. Thanks for all of your help guys!
  3. Thanks for your help! I’ll update after the refill and set time. I know one thing, I’m not filling it back up with foam. I’m tired of digging that crap out! I’ll spray some back in on the bottom and the rest will be good old Pink Panther insulation stuffed in.
  4. Ha! I already had it torn out so I followed your lead and asked questions at the plumbing store. Good with the epoxy or would you add anything else? I also drilled super small holes at the ends of the cracks before I epoxied.
  5. Sanded, cleaned, applied several layers of epoxy with a few layers of fiberglass mesh. Will this do it or should I coat it with marine weld on the outside of this too?
  6. I spoke too soon- there is a crack on the inside too! So it’s running down the whole back part of the “moto chamber”
  7. Cleaned off the area- here is the length of the crack.
  8. Thank you- definitely coming from this crack- I push down on it and water stops leaking out of it. There’s no crack on the inside so it makes no sense where the water would be coming from to me.
  9. It’s a 2010 Hot Springs Grandee. The crack is not inside the moto housing area- only on the outside. I’ve attached a pic of the first leak (around the light) where I discovered the first crack (wasn’t leaking then and this appears to be a new crack off of that one?). Water flows out of the crack and when I push down, it stops. It appears to be about 7 inches long but could be under the other repair I made and be longer.
  10. Fixed the leaking light and filled in one crack 2 years ago. Leak came after this winter- dug it out again, now have a new crack that looks like my leak source- can this be repaired?
  11. Now they are all working… thanks for your help! I’m sure it’s still in or maybe I got lucky and it blew out. Had some black garbage in the bottom of the spa after running it for an hour. All clean and all keys working - no leaks.
  12. The latter- they can be screw removed but it does have that washer in between the shell and the body that it screws into. 2010 Hot Springs Grandee
  13. well, fired it back up and the jet is working but the first one now is doing the same thing! I guess I just blew it down the line! Lorddddsd
  14. Will do! Thanks for all of the details. Your pics really helped me understand better! I ran the shop vac on it after lowering the water below. I forwarded air and all the other jets dribbled out water and air freely. Then I reversed on all of the jets pulling out a bit of water and I think small particles. Nothing big came out though. I had to pull the front jet out to get inside better. Sealed the jet stem up with a little silicone and put it back in. I’ll refill tomorrow and update!
