How To Know If Your Hot Tub Is In Need Of Repairs

Posted on

Owning a hot tub generally means that you will have unlimited access to some very relaxing soaking sessions, either by yourself or with some loved ones. Of course, in order to ensure that you are well aware of some of the common problems that you might face at some point. By knowing this information, you will have a much easier time knowing what to do or when to call for help. Here are some signs of hot tub trouble that you will want to be aware of:

It Is Not Heating Up Properly

Whether your hot tub is not heating up at all or it is simply not heating up enough, you are going to want to make sure that you are having this issue checked into right away. This might be something that you will want to leave to a professional because the cause of the problem could be one of many things. By hiring a professional, you won't have to worry about spending money on replacement parts that were not actually needed. In the end, you might find that the cause of the water no longer heating properly is either the heating element or the pump itself. If the pump is not turning on properly, the heating element is ever going to have a chance to operate properly.

The Jets Are Not Working Right

First, you will want to take the time to turn the jets to see if that changes anything. You will want to do this because a lot of hot tubs have moveable jet heads that allow you to change the amount of force that comes through them, or simply close them up altogether. They might have been accidentally moved the last time the hot tub was used. If that is not the problem and you have recently refilled the hot tub with new water, it could be that there is an air lock in the lines. Simply loosen the fitting on the pump to see if you can get some of the trapped air to escape. If that is not the problem, you will want to have a professional come inspect the hot tub. The jets may need to be replaced.

As you can see, there are some problems that you may face from time to time with your hot tub. The sooner you have them dealt with, the sooner you will be able to enjoy the hot tub as much as possible.
