    Whirpool Tub
    I have a jetted tub with 4 jets, 2 on each side. One of the jets doesn't function properly anymore. When the air intake is closed, it actually gently sucks water in and when the intake is fully opened it barely circulates water when the other are very strong. There is access to the pump and the rear end of the tub from the ajoining room but the effected jet is the at the front and against a wall. Any suggestions?

    Unscrew and remove the jet when you have water in the tub and turn on the jets back on. Is there a strong stream coming out now? Check the jet for anything that may be clogging it. Get back to me with the results. Regards, Tom
