OttawaGreg Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 I just dumped and re-filled my tub and there is a new sound emanating from the back when the jets are on high. It sounds like a "sluck" or "clack" sound. It is sort of like the jets are having trouble pushing out the water or something is knocking around in a jet. But, I have open-closed all jets one by one, turned all dials and tried all different settings and it has no effect, the sound stays. I called the shop yesterday and the service guy mentioned there could be something dislodged in the heater and clacking around, or a clip may have come loose. As it's under warranty I have no cost to replace the heater he says. I wonder why it started this just after a fill? The manual talked about air getting trapped in the lines or something and showed a picture of how to loosen a manual trap of sorts to let the air escape, but my tub pump did not look like the diagram. The service guy said likely not the issue. The tub is a Caldera Spa Cumberland model. That's 280 gallons. Any ideas? Thanks, Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
