Posted
February 12, 2026
Recall Number
26268
Quantity
About 32,900 units (In addition, about 853 were sold in Canada)

Reason for Recall

The hydromassage rotary jets can create a suction force that allows the user's hair to be entangled, submerging their head underwater, posing entanglement and drowning hazards to the user.

Action Taken

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled jets and go to the firm's website http://www.hotspring.com/recalls to determine if their spa has them. If it is determined that the spa has the recalled parts, contact the firm to obtain instructions and a video that demonstrates how to turn the recalled jets off and how to install free replacement jet inserts in your spa. Consumers will need the serial number located on the front of the spa to make the determination.
