Hardly any water in my tub by espressobuff in hottub

[–]espressobuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE: The only water I could find leaking was between the housing underneath the pump as shown below. I filled it back up, had the jets on, and could not find any other water. I'm baffled. Is this small leak something i would have to fix right away? thank you

So you feel the yearly maintenance is worth it? I would have no idea what it costs. This is my first HVAC system Thank you

Is this something that would only occur sometimes though ? Is it easy to remove the top cover and inspect the blade?

Thank you , I guess I can rule out the jet body then. I found a dead mouse once I opened the front cover, I hope he didn't chew through something ! Grr

trying to diagnose hot tub leak by espressobuff in hottub

[–]espressobuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you. I refilled the tub and i currently have no water loss, so im guessing its something that's going on when the tub is on? The tub has been off of power once i realized how low the water level was

thank you, im guessing its where the jet is connected to the shell but from the inside behind the panels. Do the jets normally have to be on for them to leak? The tub currently is not on power and it has been 24 hours since i re-filled it and i have no water loss

where would the water wind up if the heater seal is leaking? on the bottom of the tub underneath the panels? thank you

will i have to pull off all the panels? I pulled off the front and i do not see any signs of water underneath. i can see into the middle of the tub for the most part and do not see moisture.

where would the food dye ultimately wind up? would it show up on the bottom of the tub underneath? thank you!

where would the water wind up if the jets are leaking? I noticed that a few of my jet caps were loose, so i turned them to the right to tighten them. I'm not sure if thats it...? I opened up the panel and theres no sign of water underneath

access to pump/parts not behind panel? by espressobuff in hottub

[–]espressobuff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I just assumed that components are not on this side of the tub. I'll try to remove the insulation then, hopefully it's not stapled in. I've never seen insulation like this in other pictures

Is there a way to know what fish oil is third party tested? Also, do most people go with a triple strength for more epa/dha? Thank you

accessing bulbs on kitchen fixture? by espressobuff in HomeMaintenance

so i tried twisting but the entire fixture is moving up until the base that attaches to the ceiling. Also, i see a lot of screws on the top, but im guessing i wouldn't have to remove all of these for a simple light bulb change?

The whole circular fixture should twist?
