Hot Tub Jets Weak or Not Working — Chicago, Illinois
Hot tub jets produce little to no water pressure, or some jets have stopped working entirely while others function normally. Common causes include clogged jet nozzles from calcium or biofilm buildup, an air lock in the plumbing lines, a worn pump impeller, or a faulty diverter valve that is not routing water properly. A pool and spa technician can disassemble and clean the jets, purge air locks, inspect the circulation pump, and replace any failed components to restore full jet pressure.
