If the diverter jet is not rotating, check for any debris or blockages in the jet. Clean any obstructions and ensure the jet is securely fastened. If the issue persists, inspect the internal components for wear and replace if necessary.
Regularly clean the diverter jet by removing it and rinsing it with clean water. Check for calcium buildup and use a descaling solution if needed. Lubricate moving parts with a spa-safe lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
