southernmel1st Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Since nobody is offering up their expert opinion, I will give mine. I suggest that you replace the gaskets. What you will need to do is remove all of the jets, make sure that they are all the same size and take them to the nearest pool supply store with a parts department. Silicone will eventually leak and to make sure that your hot tub lasts that much longer, gaskets are the way to go! GL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mudrider Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 ok i hope there are some pool stores around cuz i've been seeing them disappearing a lot over the winter due to bankrupty and poor economy. maybe the hardware store may have them?? or maybe i can make some using pieces of rubber?? i just have to figure out how to take the jets out.

Congrats on keeping such an old unit in working order. I would just use silicone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudrider Posted March 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 how many different kinds of jets are there?? i dont know what brand they are to even begin to take them apart. is there a generic way to do this, or is each brand different??
