Relieving an air lock at the pump connection in your Ella's Bubbles walk-in tub can resolve issues with the hydro massage pump or massage system not working. This process involves disconnecting and reconnecting an air tube to the relay switch.
An air lock can occur in the air tubes that send signals to the relay switch, preventing the electric pump from activating. The relay switch is a crucial part that works when air from the tube pushes it, powering the pump for the hydro massage system.
To relieve an air lock, disconnect the air tube from the relay switch. This allows the compressed air to release itself. After the air is relieved, reconnect the air tube back to the relay switch. This action can resolve issues where the pump or massage system is not working.
