Pacific Hot Tub Features

XXL Jumbo Storm Soft Massage Jet

The soft massage jet works to create a gentle, soothing motion to help relax and ease
the muscles in the lower lumbar region. To increase the speed of the rotating
massage jet, turn the outside face of the jet counter-clockwise. To turn the jet off,
turn the outside face of the jet clockwise.

XL Twin Storm Rotating Stimulation Jet

This twin nozzle jet provides stimulating, energetic therapy. The two nozzles can be
moved to meet in the center or at either side of the jet. To increase the speed of the
rotating massage jet, turn the outside face of the jet counter-clockwise. To turn the
jet off, turn the outside face of the jet clockwise.

XL Pulsating Storm Massage Jet

This jet provides an invigorating pulsating massage. To increase the speed of the
rotating massage jet, turn the outside face of the jet counter-clockwise. To turn the
jet off, turn the outside face of the jet clockwise.

L/F Full-Sized Storm Directional Jets

The flow direction can be adjusted by aiming the swivel nozzle in the desired
direction. The water flow can be changed at each jet by turning the outside face of
the jet – clockwise to reduce flow, counter clockwise to return to full flow. All full size
jets are interchangeable allowing you to personalize your hot tub.

L/F Mini Storm Directional Jet

The mini storm directional series jets provide invigorating therapy, and can be
adjusted by aiming the swivel nozzle in the desired direction. Mini series jets are also
interchangeable and can be turned on or off by a quarter turn.

L/F Mini Storm Massage Jet

The mini storm massage jets compliment the large storm size jets in creating a full
body massage. Mini series jets are interchangeable with their jet size, and can also be
turned on or off, just like the large size series. To remove the jet, simply pry the nozzle
straight out.
