8.8 Weak Or Surging Jets
Weak or surging jets are usually caused by an insuffi cient water supply to the pump or
a clogged or broken impeller. The water level may simply be too low, or there may be an
obstruction in the water fl ow path to the pump or in the pump’s impeller. Before making
a service call, ask the customer to verify that all jets are open and that there is suffi cient water in the
hot tub.
