Title: HotSpring Grandee - noise from SmartJet lever
Post by: Mikester on October 01, 2016, 11:20:08 am

When I have my right SmartJet Lever set so the Precision Jet next to it is at full force, it's loud.  Sounds like it's sucking in air.  Very annoying.  When I adjust it down, the noise drops too (though not all the way).

Before, I get the dealer out, any suggestions?  I like having the Precision Jet at full force, but hate having that sucking noise.

Thanks.

quite common, you really have to have those diverters in the perfect spot or they leak air which as noted makes a very annoying sound..a tech may replace the gasket and/or they also make a complete diverter repair/rebuild kit that I believe sells for under $75 that will replace all of the "guts" of the diverter hopefully sealing up the air leak....good luck!

Thanks.  Should it be a warranty issue?  The tub's 6 months old.

If I replace, pretty straight forward?  Wondering if I can pop it off, maybe try re-seating the gasket.
