14. Troubleshooting Procedures
Remove the Factory Installed Jet
NOTE: A special tool is provided with the replacement jet that will allow you to remove the jet(s) from the
whirlpool. It is also packed with each trim kit.
- Position the jet ball nozzle so that it is pointing completely upward.
- Insert the removal tool, hooked end up, into the opening of the jet and hook the inside top of the nozzle.
- Grasp the tool firmly and place your thumb against the bath wall. Pull on the jet assembly until it pulls from the
hole. Be careful not to lose the O ring.
NOTE: The nozzle must remain pointed up or the tool will slip off.
- To service orifices insert a pencil into the end of the jet nozzle and push the orifice out. After removing any
blockage, check orifice to make sure it is clear and press back into jet housing. Orifices are only installed in
whirlpool jets when there are six or more jets in the whirlpool system.
Re-install the Jets
NOTE: The jet O ring must be correctly positioned, must be lubricated, and must be in good condition to permit
easy rotation and proper operation of the jet.
- Install the O ring onto the first shoulder of the jet. Lubricate the O ring with silicone lubricant to prevent noisy
operation of the jet.
- Carefully insert the jet into the housing, and lightly push and rotate the jet until it snaps into position. Do not
force the jet.
NOTE: When installed correctly, the jet should turn smoothly both clockwise and counterclockwise.
