If the intensity control dial on an Ella walk-in tub is difficult to turn, it may be due to excess silicone from the assembly process. The video demonstrates how to address this problem, which applies to every Ella walk-in tub model that includes hydro massage.
To fix a stiff intensity control dial, first place protective tape on the tub. Using a straight edge that is not too sharp, remove the dial. Then, simply wipe away any excess silicone from around the ring. Once the excess silicone is cleared, snap the dial back into place.
