Do I got a leak ???????

[michael_wobbe]

I am the  owner of a HS landmark,

Today I saw a small amount of water comming out under one of the jet pumps ( that one nearrest the moto massage).

It looks like the water i comming out of one the screwhole that hold the jetpump.

???The amount of water is very little, but enough to make the ground outside the spa wet on a little area ( 3 x 20 cm)

If it is a leak what can I do about it ?

If it's less than 5 years old, it's still under warranty so call the dealer.  If it's over 5 years old, it is probably just a check valve that is not working properly.  It is a $10 part and you can replace it yourself in about 5 minutes.

Good luck and keep us updated.

Agree with Term.
Look up inside equipment compartment. you may see what is an air check valve hanging down and or leaking. it's connected to a 1/2" vinyl tubing with a spring clamp. Would be directly over the jet pump.
Could also be a pump seal. where shaft comes out of the center of the electrical motor into the water part of the pump. look at the shaft while the pump is running or not.

Until we know how many beers you've had, we cannot correctly asses weather you gotta leak or not. For me it's six.

Hey I am back again,

I have looked all around in the equipment compartment, checked air check valve and checked connections and pumps, there was no leak at all.

Then I unscrew the 2 screws that hold the jetpump  to the buttom of the spa( nearrest the moto massage) and carefully raised the pump a little bit.

Then I was able to see down in the screw holes and unfortunately there was comming water out of both holes, not much but enough to reach the top of the screwholes and run over.

I took my waccumcleaner and sucked the holes empty.

It takes 2 hours before the holes is filled with again with water.

I cant see any change in the water level in the spa and it work alright.

Shall I let it be or do something about it

There is no warrenty anymore.

I will be very grateful for any help

Had a guy call me raising hell a couple of weeks ago about his new spa leaking.  It turned out the light lens had jiggled loose a little and all it took was a half turn to tighten it up.  Check that real quick as they do vibrate loose over time.

thank you very much,

hope this will do it

Hey

I checked the light lens and i was able to turn it a little bit (5 cm).

Unfortenately there is still coming water out of the two screwholes under the jet pump, maby not as much as before, but it is hard to tell because it was very little from the beginning.

Once again I looked all over the  equipment compartment and checked all connections but I am not able to find any water in there ( besides in the two screwholes).

If the leaking water is comming from the light lens it maby takes some time for it to run out of the foam so I think I will wait a week and see if it stops.

If any one here on this forum could email me a exploded wiew ore other material that shows pipeline, plumming ect. on the HS landmark I will be very grateful .

I'm probably good for 4.  Then it's 1 in and 1 out.

You're right, I would wait a week as it will take a while for all the water to make it's way out.  It sounds like you have solved the problem.
