Hot Tub Not Working? How To Fix An Airlock In 10 Minutes Or Less!

[@dennislawrence9740]

Thanks. Have you heard of using a dedicated for the hot tub plunger method? In the process of refilling the Bristol for the first time, hoping that I don't have the issue.

Good morning, if you refill it by putting the hose in the filter well you shouldn't have an issue. This is really for the people who forget to put the hose in the filter well and just put in the body of the hot tub. Hope this helps!

We followed the proper refill method by putting the hose in where the filter would normally sit. First time refill. We used our hot tub all week no problems. Today, it’s not working. The 2024 Envoy. Only two chairs will come on. When we tap jet one…nothing. First time owner of a hot tub, so we will be calling our dealer for service asap tomorrow. Hope it’s nothing serious. Our levels have been almost perfect sense we refilled it. So surprised when we got in tonight and it’s not working right.

Good afternoon, it may just need the software flashed but being it's so new it should come at no cost to you. I apologize you're having some issues so early on. Hope this helps!

Define “catch a prime” please

Good afternoon, catch a prime basically means you've released the air and the pump comes on and works properly. Hope this helps!

I assume you're meant to do this with the pump off, and gravity will flush the air out? Otherwise if the pump is on and you loosen the suction line you'll suck air into the pump, correct?

Good afternoon, yes the pump needs to be off. However, the hot tub could be on as long as the pump is off. For a homeowner I would suggest simply turning the hot tub off and on as needed. Hope this helps!

I’m tried that in my new jacuzzi, but the control panel the alarm appears, LCDF…BLINKING-..the pump don’t turn on and the control the vendor say me is a Balboa😢. I can’t see the light in this tunnels 😢😢😢

Good afternoon, have you tried a J68 reset? Have you tried just turning the hot tub off for 30 seconds and turning it back on? If so, can you provide me your serial number? Hope this helps!
