Weak water flow from the jets is one of the clearest signs that your hot tub needs servicing.

Before you look for a leak, make the hot tub safe. Switch off the power at the isolator or main switch, not just the control panel. If you can, unplug it too.

Check the filter lid is seated and the rubber seal is not twisted. Look for a valve left half open after topping...
