Leak under the spa


Recommended Posts

Hi,

i'm the owner of an Artesian Spa. Serie Island spa, model Grand Cayman. Bought in th 2010

I noticed a few weeks ago a leak in my spa. The concrete around the spa is always wet and I found that i'm losing about 1/2 inch by 3 days.

I started to try finding the leak.

My last test was this one :

- I emptied completely the spa

- let it dry for 1 week (everything was now dry around the spa)

- fill it up with only 1 foot of water (just to have water above all the holes (jets, pump intake, pump outake, etc.) in the foots area

- let it sit for 24 hours (i didn't start any pump)

I then noticed again a leak...some water came out around the spa.

So, my guess is good (i think) that the leak is somewhere around the foot area.

Now, my interrogation is : is there any "common issue" or easy thing that I can try based on my investigation ? I don't know but maybe it can be just a gasket or something like that. I would like to try everything before having to flip the spa on the side to access the under foot area.

Any help will be appreciate.

thanks

Hi Dave,

already gave a try to Fix-A-Leak.... 2 complete treatments...I read a lot of good reviews so I was convinced that it will work...but no..not for me.

I had some exchange with a certified Artesian technician and he saw in the past a few leaks coming from the water return line of the circulation pump.

So, I have no choice to flip the spa but now i'm trying to find a schema that can point me out what is exactly the "return line".

my guess is either a or b on my picture.
