I know this will sound lame to the pros but I have a Sneaky leak on hot tub 1/2" right angle jet fitting? drip drip drip.
This is a fitting in the side wall of the hot tub which accepts a 1/2" flex pressure line and then it turns 90 degrees and seems to reduce way down probably to create the jet flow. This is a real common fitting on a hot tub, I'm sure.
Anyway I have a leaker and for the life of me can't find the exact point of the leak.
The problem is access. I can't get very close and I can't get a real great look at it. I can get my hands on it to apply two part epoxy putty, but despite many efforts, I just can't find or stop this pesky leak!
I will try again with a shop rag to wrap around various points to see if I can isolate the source better.
Amy other tips on finding this pesky leak would be appreciated. I know I can stop it if I can find it.
I'm aware it could be at the entry point where it joins the tub wall. so far it's just hard to tell.
Other than replacing the fitting. Once I find the leak is there a better glue etc than the two part epoxy putty for repairing a crack in a plastic fitting?
