Definitely inserted it, can you not play it? See below screenshot of uploaded video!

Brilliant, thanks. I’ll do this later and report back 👍🏻 Ah no, nothing come out of there, all from underneath. See video here. IMG_7784.MOV

I won’t lie, you’ve lost me here! Sorry for being slow but I’m an accountant so hot tub plumbing is not my forte, Ha. The leak is coming from the area with the arrow pointing at it. The circled area is the foam that i think I need to remove to understand the underlying issue, is it ok to just rip it off? Will that need to be replaced? What is it for?

Luckily there is no fixed bottom, just a based which it sits on. However, tipping it on its side is an issue as it is quite an old, round spa with a fairly weak facade (see picture). It was a real effort to get it out of the seller’s garden and into ours! The only time I want the thing moved again is when it has given up the ghost and it is going to the tip to be replaced by a shiny new one! Bush fix sounds great, full repair by a tech sounds horrible, whichever currency we’re talking. Ultimately, it is a 15 year old (albeit in very good condition for age) hot tub so we need to be careful how much we spend on repairs. May have to try the bodge fix first of all!

Ha. He has provided excellent advice, although it is well out oF my diy skill set! Is it ok to just remove that bit of foam in order to see what the issue is underneath? Presumably so as how else to fix it?!

Why does it scare you? I’m scared now!! Another couple of pictures to show how it is all plumbed in. Let me know if you need any more.

A couple more pictures to show the inside and how the plumbing is set up. I don’t know where to start!

Do you think it’s just the t valve that needs replacing? I’m very new to any sort of plumbing like this so am really unsure of the best approach! I’ll take another couple of pics in the morning to show what else it is connected to.

As the title says, and I need help! Pictures added to show where the leak is from. Looks like a gate valve but no idea what to do to diagnose or fix as it is very tight down there and hard to manoeuvre. Help! IMG_7784.MOV IMG_7781.MOV
