Hot Tub Jets Fall Out

Can I run my hot tub with most of the jets missing? September 1, 2015 Subscribe We purchased a house last year that came with an older hot tub, the one I referenced in this previous question. I ran it all winter long, and gradually a bunch of the jets popped out; 24 of them overall (2 large, 5 medium and 17 small), which is probably most of them. Rotate the jet face counterclock until you feel some resistance. Continue to rotate the jet until it begins to unscrew from the jet body. Replace jets by screwing them back in the jet body. When the jet face can be rotated about 1/2 turn without unscrewing the jet, it is properly in place. Rotate the jet face counterclockwise until you feel some resistance. Continue to rotate the jet for another quarter turn. You will feel the jet snap out of position. Continue to rotate the jet as you pull it out of the jet well. To replace jets, insert the jet in the jet well and push and rotate it clockwise until you feel it snap into position.

When the jet face can be rotated freely, it is properly seated.

And of course, the question of a hot tub’s water-to-urine ratio is a constant concern. But usual suspects aside, some very scary health issues have been linked to hot tub use. “We call it ‘hot tub lung,’” says Dr. Cecile Rose, an environmental and respiratory health expert at National Jewish Health, a medical center in Denver. Rose is describing a type of lung inflammation that she and other researchers have linked to hot tubs.

A specific kind of bacteria found in public water systems—called Nontuberculous mycobacteria—ends up in the mist produced when you switch on a tub’s bubbles. “When you turn on the jets, this bacteria becomes aerosolized, and you inhale it,” Rose explains. Once it reaches your lungs, the bacteria can cause symptoms like fever andshortness of breath. If you continue to use your tub, the inflammation persists and worsens, and can cause lasting fatigue, weight loss and other more serious side effects. “A lot of doctors don’t ask if a person with these symptoms has been using a hot tub, and people become very sick,” Rose says. “If you keep using your tub, taking antibiotics or steroids won’t do any good.” Even if you never use the bubble jets, you may still be at risk for so-called hot tub lung. “The jets are a very efficient delivery system, but that doesn’t mean turning them off is safe,” Rose adds. And no, you can’t just crank up your water supply’s chlorine and bromine disinfectant levels.

Too much of those can lead to respiratory issues too, Rose adds. More bad news: Mycobacteria aren’t your only unwelcome bathing buddies. Another type of bacteria called Pseudomonas can cause eye, ear and skin irritations, Rose says. She also mentions a germ called Legionella that can lead to Legionnaire’s disease—a severe form of pneumonia. Like mycobacteria, Legionella gets into your system through mist or steam inhalation, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). “People with compromised immune systems—older adults, those with diabetes or on chemotherapy drugs—are most at risk, and the mortality rates associated with Legionnaire’s are actually quite high,” Rose explains.A study in the Journal of the American Medical Association found the virus that leads to genital herpes can survive for hours on the plastic seats you’ll find in some hot tubs. Blame the hot water temperature for most of these health hazards. Just as you enjoy a toasty soak, bacteria and germs thrive in the cozy comforts of warm water, Rose says.
