I had this same problem where it was leaking from these ports. The top housing is entirely removable, and you can remove it all the way and plug the hole like the bottom so it’s not leaking from behind the housing

There is a one way valve on the bottom hose and it can break. Dont plug that off.

Can’t get the screw out of the top piece. Now it’s stripped. Do we know the function of this top piece or can I just wreck it and patch the hole with JB Weld?

This is a life saver I was just fixing to drag the ol thing to the road but was holding out hope and here it is. Thank you for this video! To those asking about the water in the walls I had to open all the drains, the one on the botttom, and flip the jacuzzi a couple times and step the water out of it. Finally got basically all of the water out.

So I did what you did but the top one is still leaking air from behind the valve. Is there a way to fill it in behind the hole. Is that what you had to do or no?
@leyburne12 ай бұрын
Thanks for the fix! I plugged the top and bottom holes but found it was leaking around the outside of the upper “vent”. I put some Marine JB weld into a syringe and pumped it around the perimeter, no more leaks 👍

What is the function of the vent-looking part on top? I'm about to undertake this fix, but I don't want to plug up something that might be important... From the location, my guess is that it's an overflow drain. And... thanks for posting this!
@theRickLC3 ай бұрын
Same problem ... it appears to be similar to a bath over flow drain. Except the overflow is routed thru a tube back into the bottom of spa. I am assuming this tube has disconnected and water is now filing the walls/air pocket and the air is escaping thru the ports where the tube was connected. Also, since this tube is inside the walls/air pocket there is no access to repair, reconnect or replace. An expoxy plug at both ends appears to be the solution.

Unscrew port you put air in and turn hot tub on its side. Water will drain.

I had the same leak from that top hole. You could hear the air coming from it when drained. Today I plugged it w JD Weld and shaved the stem down. Tomorrow I will blow it up and test the leak. I didnt do anything to the bottem hole. 🤞

Try loosening the screws and retightening them. This helped me. Simple fix but if you don’t know that’s your problem it’s hard to figure out otherwise.

I just had to do the exact same thing to my hot tub. Unfortunately the instructions don't say anything about horse play in the hot tub I think that's what damaged ours🫣 we've had ours up 24/7 for almost 3 years now. If I can make it through one more Montana winner I feel that I would have gotten my money's worth. Unfortunately I watched your video a day late but we both came to the same conclusion. Thank you for posting the video to help others.

I just did the same fix. Thx. Only thing i will add is, mine kept leaking from the upper thingy. I pulled it straight out and filled the hole behind it with a water proofing "kerdi fix" and pushed the cover thingy back on.. still not sure what the function of the upper thingy is. But it aint gonna fo anything anymore.. cheers

Is it possible that I inflated my spa to fast and screwed up the inside? Mine seems to be leaking air from behind the filter. It will not inflate. Any folks out there have this problem? Or any idea if it's fixable.

You'll have to remove the small Phillips screw inside the purge valve case that's underneath the filter. In his video he shows how to twist it sideways. I just use a vinyl patch with PVC cement and it worked perfect .

Patch over the bottom one will work and then use aquarium grade silicone around the entire top one that will help seal it.😊
