Nordic Warrior has small crack

(1/3) > >>

Andymon:
Our Nordic Warrior which is 25 years old, give or take, has been a great tub. We've only had to replace the pump in all those years. We now have a small crack about 3/4" long about 2" below the filled water line and it leaks into the pump area. This is a plastic tube. A local spa place said they couldn't do anything other than some silicone on both sides and let it cure for at least a couple days. Is there anything else that could be done if this doesn't work?

Thanks!

 You could try some kind of 2 part epoxy, tough thing is with those spa's it's hard to get stuff to stick to it.   On a 25 year old spa, anything you try is not going to hurt.   It will either work or it wont. 

jjackkrash:
What material is the shell made out of?

Do you have a Nordic dealer nearby?  If so see if he has a sample of whatever color you Tub you have and with a heat gun melt it into the spot then wait for it to harden and fill it up. Usually takes a couple hours to cure completely. I have fixed a few Nordics by doing this. It doesn’t look great but at least the colors match and it is a lasting fix.

The fact that you've gotten 25 years out of a tub with no major issues is no small feat!  Hopefully one of the solutions provided works and you get another few years out of it!
