Hot Tub Parts - Jets Guide

 

When it comes to tricky hot tub parts, then your jets are right at the top of list, what i mean by tricky hot tub parts is that the jets are incredibly annoying and difficult to replace if they go wrong.

There are literally thousands and thousands of different jet varieties, sizes, diameter, massage type, colour and more. So when these particular hot tub parts go wrong, it is rather hard to find

an exact replacement, or even a replacement that works and fits. This guide is going to show you how to maintain them and the key identification points you need to know when trying to source some replacements

that work and fit.

 

Like most hot tub parts, your jets are made of plastic which gets brittle with the constant water being pumped through them and the chemicals that you use in your hot tubs water adds to the rate of how fast these

hot tub parts get brittle, especially chlorine. Unfortunately there is not a way of preventing this brittleness on your hot tub parts and it generally takes a long time for it too happen but it will happen! It's also

good to remember that the jets that haven not yet broken me be ready to break, by this i mean that they may be brittle enough already so that when you are slightly too rough with them, they will break again.

 

 

There is no way of protecting these particular hot tub parts but fortunately they have a decent life span of over five years.

 

Now when they do break and you are trying to find replacements, a top notch hot tub parts dealer should be able to identify them for you from just a few simple measurements or by sending them a picture. If that is not the case

then you are going to have to make note of these key factors. Please bear in mind that you are not tied to a dealer with these, most are universal, whilst the company you bought the hot tub from will be quick to tell you

that you must only buy your hot tub parts from them, truth is that this is not the case and is how they get a lot of repeat trade by tricking their customers.

 

Key points to make note off. You are going to measure the length of the hot tub parts from bottom to top and then the width of the diameter. You will need to distinguish what type of massage the jet, what colour and what the face type is.

 It could be scalloped or smooth. Next you will need to take note of the bottom diameter. Basically just measure everything. Also check for part numbers as this may be a quick route to locating replacement hot tub parts.

 

 

 

Here is the trick. Do not go and buy the exact replacements just very. Ring up a hot tub parts dealer and tell them all the sizes and measurements. Now ask them for a cheaper alternative. You may be paying twice as much for just a brand name.

There are tons of hot tub parts manufacturers that make EXACT replacements but for half the cost that do the job just as well!
