Welcome to our forum.
I have a 1998 Hot Spring Jetsetter that I bought used about 4 years ago it came to me equiped with the current style twin tube no-fault heater. After changing the water today (sat empty over night, lows in the 40's so no freeze involved) I discovered a small drip coming from the plastic end of the heater away from the wiring and plumbing connections. My question is, is there anything serviceable under the plastic, should I try to repair this heater, or just go ahead and spend $300+ on a new one? I hate needless spend the money if it may be something simple like a screw that needs to be tightened or even if it is an o-ring that can be replaced.thnaks
For its age the tub is in really good shape, having likely spent its entire life indoors, other than the fading on the waterline tiles and styling one would hard pressed to guess its age. Thankfully it is a 1998 model which was the last year for real redwood slats, not the color shifting prone fake redwood that was introduced in 1999. If nothing unrepairable fails on it I may well keep it another 10-15 years, or more as I just can't justify spending $10,000 on a new Jetsetter just to get the improved Moto--masage DX as I don't care about color changing lights, or internet conntivity.

Good luck, 24 is the oldest I have seen and it was a HS
