Waddle08 Posted May 13, 2010 Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 Hi All I'm a newbie to the forum, but I'm hoping somebody can help me. I have a Coast Spa Paradise40 tub, which is 4 years old. I recently drained and refilled the tub, but now only one side(right hand side) of the tub has air coming through the jets when the venturi are opened. I checked the jets, and all are open, but of the 6 seats only three have air coming through. The three seats that don't have air are on different pumps aswell. I took out the air controls, and the "ping-pong" ball is loose in the hole for each pump. I wondered if it would be a good idea to put my garden blower over the open air control to see if that would force through any air? The water pressure out of the jets is fine, so I don't think I have an airlock? Any help would be appreciated, to save me calling in the expensive Engineers Best regards Waddle08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi David I fixed the issue at the weekend, I replaced the back of the jets on three seats. The backs were loose fitting in the holes in the tub, so the suction needed to pull the air to the jet was not there. this all works fine now Regards Waddle08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
