Good morning. i recently purchased a home and have researched to find that I have a 1996 Hydro Air Spa that is connected to my pool. The suction covers at the base of the spa are missing. I have been researching to determine if any new covers would work, but have not had any luck. So I wanted to reach out here to see if anyone has any insight. Attached are 2 photos of the suction intakes for your use. Thank you.

I can't find if this will fit the existing wall fitting or has an adapter for it. You might call the supplier and ask.

Thank you for your response. The only hesitation I have in reference to the model number you specified for existing, Hydro 10-6200, is that the assembly that is currently in the jacuzzi does not contain a threaded insert, and also the suction cover only contains two (2) screws; where the one you mentioned indicated four (4) screw holes. I have contacted the manufacturer as you suggested to determine if it will work, but just not sure it is the correct model number. I am continuing to research as well. Thank you again for your assistance.

Yes it does. All molded tubs, portable or inground, as well as fiberglass pools, have a threaded thru-wall flange fitting that either screws into the jetback on the other side of the shell or it has a nut and a pipe glued into it. You're hoping you don't have to remove it and replace it to get a cover on it.

the suction cover only contains two (2) screws;
I see 4 holes in your pic. I'm on my phone, so the details aren't great, but I count 4. This is the only hydro-air suction that looks like that that I know of. Better pics might help.

That suction is a retrofit that can have like 9 different adapter plates depending on what you are putting it on. You might need a better pic and a measurement or 2, but I'm betting they have something that will work if the screws don't line up, I just don't know which from what I can see from here. Plus they get paid to look that stuff up. Any supplier that carries the part should be able to help, manufacturers often won't talk to end consumers, and limit their tech support to suppliers who actually buy from them.
