under waterfall jets on Jacuzzi j470 - FIXED!
mrpenguin:
Wow, thanks for the fast replies!
Yes, I have rotated the jets to turn them on or off. I actually was told to, and swapped the actual jets. So the jet fitting on the left was put onto the right port and vise versa. The power out of the right jet remained limited. Turned it all the way off and all the way on in both cases. It is obvious something is not right port.
So, Jacuzzi Jim verified my concern that it is indeed the jet/port that is low, because it should be the same as the other.
I just don't think I should accept that and just "enjoy the tub". If I got a used one, even from a dealer, at a cheaper rate, or if they refund cash to make it like that, I'd be more accepting to just "enjoy the tub". I guess it may be just me, but when I pay premium for something, I do expect it to be 100% working when I get it and for the length of the warranty. Thanks for backing that thought up dunecritter.

I wouldn't sweat it to much...you bought a good product and they should have no issues getting it serviced for you.
Quickbeam:
Sorry Penguin,
I missed reading part of your post. I sure wouldn't accept it and just "enjoy the tub" either. You paid good money for your tub and it should work properly. Let us know how you make out.
Jacuzzi Jim:
I agree they should fix, or at least send a guy out to confirm the problem, not a "rep" but an actual service tech. I don't think it will make a difference but what's the flow like with both jets out. Finding the problem might be easy or not.

Not letting it get to me yet. We'll see how it all turns out. It is not the end of the world, just disappointing.
I figure eventually someone will have to come out. I wanted to switch to the 60A setup anyway one of these days. Dealer was going to try 3way call with me and Jacuzzi, but they wanted dealer (or tech) to do it himself, which is fine by me. I'm not gonna mess with anything and risk messing up a warranty.
I did take out both jets and turned on the system. WOW, I was shocked at how little water was coming out of the right port. Hardly anything. I was expecting more than was, but without the restrictions the jet adds, there was barely any. The left port had pleanty of flow coming out.
