Where Can Replacement Parts for a Jacuzzi Tub Pump Be Found?

If your Jacuzzi tub has started acting up—maybe the jets aren’t firing like they used to or the motor sounds like it’s on its last leg—you’re probably in the market for a Jacuzzi tub pump replacement. And let’s be honest, tracking down the exact part you need can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack. But don’t worry—finding quality replacement parts doesn’t have to be a guessing game.

At Whirly Bros, we’ve helped hundreds of homeowners and pros get their whirlpool tubs back in action. Here’s what you need to know about sourcing the right parts for your Jacuzzi tub pump and what to watch for along the way.

 

First Things First: Know What You’re Replacing

Before you start shopping, it's crucial to know what part is giving you trouble. Sometimes it’s not the pump itself—it could be a faulty Jacuzzi air switch, worn-out seals, or a burnt-out motor capacitor. We always recommend doing a quick diagnostic. Listen for unusual noises, feel for reduced pressure from the jets, or look for leaks around the pump housing.

If you’re not sure what’s going wrong, snap a few pictures or jot down the model number on the pump label. Then shoot it over to us—we’re happy to help figure it out.

 

Where to Find Replacement Jacuzzi Tub Pump Parts

Here’s the good news: you’re not stuck going straight to the manufacturer for expensive original parts. Many components are available as aftermarket or OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts, which can save you a chunk of change without compromising quality.

 

1. Specialty Retailers Like Whirly Bros

This is your best bet. We’ve built our entire business around helping people find hard-to-source whirlpool parts—including everything needed for a full Jacuzzi tub pump replacement. Unlike big-box retailers, we offer expert guidance and product knowledge. We stock trusted brands, exact-fit models, and even niche items that big retailers don’t carry.

Our website is organized by brand, part type, and system compatibility, so you’re not left guessing. And if you're still not sure, just give us a call—we're actual plumbers, not just sales reps.

 

2. Manufacturer’s Website

Going directly to Jacuzzi’s website can be helpful for verifying part numbers or checking compatibility. But keep in mind, you’ll likely pay more and face longer wait times. Some older models may also be discontinued, which means you’ll need to look at third-party options anyway.

 

3. Local Plumbing Supply Stores

If you need something fast, a local plumbing shop may have what you're looking for—but selection is hit or miss. If you're lucky, they’ll have the part in stock or something comparable. If not, you'll end up waiting for them to order it anyway.

 

Don’t Overlook the Air Switch

The Jacuzzi air switch is a small part with a big job. It controls the pump with a burst of air when you press the button—keeping electricity away from wet areas. If your pump isn’t turning on but the motor is fine, this switch might be to blame.

We carry a wide range of replacements, from standard air switches to pneumatic buttons in different colors and finishes. They’re affordable, easy to install, and can instantly bring your tub back to life without needing a full pump swap.

We’re not just another online store—we’re two brothers with a long background in whirlpool system service. We've worked in the field, done the installs, and dealt with just about every weird tub issue you can think of. That hands-on experience makes a big difference when you need real advice—not a generic product page.

Whether you're ordering a Jacuzzi tub pump replacement, a new Jacuzzi air switch, or a handful of seals and gaskets, we make sure you’re getting the right fit the first time.

 

Final Tips Before You Buy

• Check your model number. It’s the fastest way to confirm compatibility.
• Measure your fittings. Pumps come in different intake/output sizes.
• Know your voltage. Most are either 115V or 230V—don't guess.
• Consider full kits. Some pumps come with new unions and gaskets, saving you another trip later.

 

FAQs

Q: How do I know if I need a full pump replacement or just a new motor?

A: If the housing is cracked or leaking, replace the full pump. If it’s just a burned-out motor, a replacement motor might do the trick.

 

Q: Can I install a Jacuzzi tub pump replacement myself?

A: Yes, if you’re handy and follow safety precautions. If electricity makes you nervous, call a pro.

 

Q: How long does a Jacuzzi air switch usually last?

A: Most last several years but can wear out faster in high-humidity environments or with frequent use.
