Thanks for making this video. It gave me more understanding of how it works and the confidence to repair it.
Nice decent fix with what you can lay your hands on while on lock down still!
Have found a rubber moulding company that currently sell replacement seals for all the A,B & C connections on fleabay & have told me they are going to start making/selling this non return washer in about 5/6 weeks time! 👍🏻
Excellent. Will look out for that. That is good news.
Think it’s a different company/person but see there are two different sellers currently selling them now, the other design twice the price!
@@guinnessdublin4669 can you post a link? Thanks.
Link please.

Thank you
Wow! That`s a fantastic experience! It seems I have a similar issue. I`ve just noticed - there is no membrane in non-return valve at all... It`s located somewhere inside loose out of the valve. I can see only a piece of rubber stem. Can you tell me whether this non return valve is replaceable in full or its body has glued inside, please?
Yes yours wll have perished and will be in the bubble ring inside. I've gone for a more robust fix here: ruclips.net/video/ZmRbK4K0ctA/видео.html
But you can buy replacements. You just have to feed it through the hole and pull the nipple back through. See pattern part here:

But I've not tries one of these as I think it's a poor design, hence went for a proffessional grade one way valve. Mine works perfectly now. See video for how I did it.
Hope that helps.

These moulded ones seem like a better bet than 3d printed. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lay-Z-Lazy-Spa-Non-Return-Valve-Fix-Leaking-A-connection-fits-many-models/264874028003?_trkparms=aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D225114%26meid%3De76a3baf75f342b1a9be4caa9c75f234%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D12%26mehot%3Dpf%26sd%3D274448742319%26itm%3D264874028003%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D0%26pg%3D2047675%26algv%3DSimplAMLv5PairwiseWebWithDarwoV3BBEV2b%26brand%3DBestway&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851
Quick question I have this problem too I put a washer on it and it stoped the leak but can it cause air leakages as my spa is slowly deflating?
Wow that’s an awesome fix. I am having similar problem but the bubbles work still just water is pouring out of the A pipe. Would this work for that do you think? I brought the spa second hand and maybe a big mistake on reflection😩
I'm upgrading the fix to something more hardcore using this part now bought. I will post the video once done. The standard valve is a very poor desgn. This will be spot on. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Spa-Pool-Hot-Tub-Air-Blower-Check-Valve-w-Union-1-4lb-Spring-400-S-1050-C20/254414584387?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
I'm having the same problem.Water gushing out of the A/Blower tube and leaking out of the bottom of the "egg".Opening the egg now to see if I can stop the leaking there before trying to fix or replace the valve.Have y'all had any luck or found any better/easier solutions?
@@SimonPass230267 Simon, my damaged rubber valve (I can see it covering only half of the hole and torn away from the rubber tip on the outer side) is set back 8+ inches deep into the tub inside of my Coleman Saluspa so I'll never be able to perform this repair, but do you know if the spring valve you posted here will fit directly inside of the blower tube coming out of the tub?If so I might just be able to push it in and have it work as a second line of defense against water getting into the blower apparatus inside of the "egg".Thanks!
Hi! I'm thinking of this rubber flap... Is it just to prevent water from leak out from the pool, when you remove the pump with water inside the pool? So, if that is the only need for it, I don't need to replace it?
Yes, there is a second one to stop flow in the egg/pump. This failed on mine. This solution needs you don't need either of the originals to work.
@@SimonPass230267 Super! Then I will not have to replace the one in the pool!
Have a nice weekend! 😉
Well done simon, you’re very clever 👍
would this valve leaking cause water to flow back into the pump? I have a leak and have tried sealing the pump and replacing the o-rings, but still have a leak. I have noticed water coming out of the airflow tube...dont think I noticed that before.
Yes, this is what happens and why you need to replace the 'a'valve, water is pushing past from the spa and leaking out from the bottom of the pump. The flat none return valve is a cheap design, hence why I'm working on a better solution using a proper check valve.
Here is a link to a replacement. I've not bought one of these, but it looks like a copy. www.ebay.co.uk/i/392807755253?rt=nc&_trkparms=aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D225114%26meid%3D796f69e5dc2a4f3796717a29751de7de%26pid%3D100677%26rk%3D5%26rkt%3D30%26mehot%3Dag%26sd%3D373100758193%26itm%3D392807755253%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2386202%26algv%3DDefaultOrganic%26brand%3DUnbranded
I have a new lay z spa vegas hot tub with freezeshield technology it worked for a few days but then the eo2 error came on. Outside in the cold about 2 degrees c it comes on and won't go off but when I take it in the house and its warned up the eo2 disappears the pump is supposed to be made for colder weather can anyone help please??
The pumps are not high quality. It may simply be the impeller expanding and catching in the pump walls. it's perhaps the difference in materials and how they expand. Or the magnet may be pushed out if there is corrosion on the metal bits which expands the diameter. Try a new impeller
I set up my Coleman Saluspa and the problem is water is leaking from the fitting on the air line in between the pump and pool. I need some advice.
Is the leak from the joint or water going back into the pumpand coming out of the bottom?
If it's from the joint, check it's not cross threaded and (and I can recall if there are any) check and cleanthe nitril rubber washers or replace them with new ones.
If it's leaking from the bottom of the pump, it's a falutly 'A' or Air valve as shown in this video. You can now buy replacement parts for this item. Check e-bay.
I'm upgrading my fix to a proper one way valve I bought off EBay here: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Spa-Pool-Hot-Tub-Air-Blower-Check-Valve-w-Union-1-4lb-Spring-400-S-1050-C20/254414584387?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

Hola Simon Pass, I am new to the "Lay Z spa", please could you give me any ideas to what is wrong with my "Miami" Egg? everything works ok, the electric plug seems to get very hot and after 1 hour of running (heat set to 25 celcius) the plugs fuse blows (13amp), its intermittent and does not always occur, the second and more annoying problem is the bubbles/massage function, when you switch this on - everything works great but only works for 2 minutes and never any longer, there is a "tick" noise when you return to press the function button and no air or the air blower does nothing at all, you have to unplug and leave for 1 hour before you get another 2 minutes of air again, there are no error codes for either issue given by the egg! :( and my spa is out of warranty, do you think that there is a heat thermostat that is faulty on the air blower pump? and maybe there could be some of the build up of calcium in the heater causing it to work harder than it should? - I have no leaks, no water inside pump. thank you for reading.
If the egg is overheating it sounds like the heating element is getting too hot. See the link to my other video. Pull out the heating element and see how much calcification there is. Cleaning this out will help it draw less current.
The blower on will add extra demand on current and will also cause a fuse to blow, but it sounds to me it's the heating element which needs fixing/cleaning or just replacing.
@@SimonPass230267 Hey, thanks for replying to my questions! :) the "hot" plug is all fixed, on the "bestway" products forum I found an article on the same subject, the cause is the electrical draw vs an aged and lightly corroded factory spec moulded on plug! apparently most people keep the egg in sheds and outdoor units which over time puts a light corrosion on the 3 pin plugs pins and fuse clasps, this interrupts a good flow of electricity and due to a high draw (some guy says around 16 amps in a 13amp plug?) you get heat, a ton of heat! so I cut off the factory one, installed a hard shelled heavy duty 13amp plug, new fuse and bingo! runs for hours on end without even getting warm (in water heating mode), still have the blower cut off after 2 minutes of usage though? checked filter and is clean as a whistle! now looking into thermostats and thermal reset switch as the possible cause.
@@SimonPass230267Hi, heating element is clean and intact, no limescale either! :O and the heater and its pump work perfectly! just the dang blower? It works which is most annoying, then cuts out after 2 minutes, the egg stays on and so does the blower function led light, no errors, no fuses blown, I have to wait until I hear a "tick" noise from inside the egg then press the massage bubble button to get it going again (for 2 minutes). weird and crazy but I must find a fix!
@@th3n3tw0rk6 Great work Eviva, that adds to our knowledge on these. I've not had this issue but I now know what to do. Good luck
This rubber flap perishes with the heat from the water "replacement on eBay" however they are only to stop water gushing out when u disconnect from the pump should have a gray cap to screw on to stop water escaping , if you got a leak from underneath your pump its the non return valve in air pipe A "replacement on eBay" same thing perishes with heat from tub, need any advice message me been repairing these for about 10 years.
Yes, only later on didn't figure it's the air blower that was broken not that bit, but the industrial strength solution I've got now will last as long as stone henge!

Hi, my non return valve is 220mm down the pipe, the video seems to be close to the edge, I have a replacement seal, is it possible to remove the pipe to access the valve as it is so far down the pipe?
@@buddythefrenchie7196 no there isn't any way you can access it to replace
I had to make replacement gaskets

Hi Simon, would this problem cause the Tub to keep deflating? Thanks Ross
Ross no, sounds like a leaking liner via a puncture to me. You can buy replacements but it's a major component. Or try looking for the leak and repairing. Is water leaking out the bottom of the tub?
@@SimonPass230267 no we are not losing any water but, we have just discovered that we have a rubber seal missing from the 'A' valve.
@@rosslennon7247 the 'a' valve is just for pushing air into the blower which is a holed section at the bottom and is not linked to the separate chamber that inflates the tub. Check the inflation hole for the tub and see if it is screwed up tight or if that's missing a rubber seal as well.
@@rosslennon7247 I think I have the same problem? I set my Coleman Saluspa up a few days ago and right away there is a leak on the fitting between the pump and pool which I believe is the air line? I don't think this union/thread fitting has a gasket? I'd like to speak with someone as I don't expect Bestway to replay.

MORE PROBLEMS WITH THE BESTWAY PRODUCT how many more after 4 month night mare NO COUSTERMER SERVICE your on your own THEY GOT YOUR MONEY IN THE BANK 😢😢😢😢😢
I dont understand the low quality of all these blow up tubs? How are they allowed to keep selling them? Why would any idiot buy one? Lets stop all the repair videos and just not have these things anymore.
Agreed, but you get what you pay for. Even an american one costing £5-10k will need fixes from time to time. The Lay-Z-Spa's can last. I'm on my 4th season, and yes things have broken, but they are easy to fix. Hope the video's help. Seee the other ones where I improve the blower mechanism for example. Should last.
