If there is a  threaded nut on the back of the jet, undo the nut as much as possible and push the jet out into the tub. Spread aquarium grade silicone around the jet and push back into the hole, put more silicone in front of the nut, you may have to spread it in the small area with your finger or if you can squirt it in from the tube of silicone. If there is no  threaded ring on the backside of the jet, go to the jet in the tub and looking down on the jet, turn it to the right. It should pop and pull out of the housing. There will be a retaining ring that may require a special tool to remove it, once the ring is out, clean it very well, spread silicon on the threads and the lip. Reinstall in the hole, reinstall jet wait 24 hours and fill and test for leaks. Take you time and you will not have to do it over again. Check where the leak is coming from, sometimes there is a hairline crack in the jet assembly, if this is the case, make sure the area is dry then use a 2 part epoxy for plastic (from lowes or home depot) and smear this all over and around the crack, let dry 24 hours, fill and test.

whirlpool tub has jets that circulate the water, where an air bath uses bubbles that rise gently from the bottom of the tub. Whirlpools are typically used for therapy, air baths are used for a much gentler experience. Air baths can be used with aromatherapy/essential oils. Both offer a spa-like experience.

first of all you need to be draining the tub completely and removing any bath mats or items from inside. Fill the tub with hot water, ensuring that the jets are covered. You can use white vinegar, 2-3 cups of white vinegar directly to the water in the tub. Turn on the whirlpool system and run it for 15-20 minutes. While the jets are running, use a soft-bristled brush to scrub the jet openings and the interior walls of the tub. Drain the Tub: Refill the tub with clean water and run the jets again for another 10-15 minutes to rinse out any remaining cleaning solution. This should help. This is what I did with mine

Didn't I answer this yesterday? I said a local plumber, a spa pool shop, fill them with silicone if you aren't going to use the jets again, or just replace the tub if it is leaking.

One of these? https://www.amazon.ca/Bath-Drain-Foot-Lock-Plastic/dp/B00L66HVWM Can't you get a drain snake down the side, or these are very effective for pulling long hair blockages and are flexible enough to easily go around corners. I use mine every 6 months. The Green Gobbler cleaner is also very good, or use Draino Gel. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00IJFU440/ref=sspa_dk_detail_1?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B00IJFU440&pd_rd_w

every motor has a frame size and horsepower listed on it. search for a new one that way. i would think since its driving a pump it will need to be a totally enclosed/driproof model

Did you turn the outer rings on the jets? They could be turned off. They are used to adjust the bubble flow, but also to turn them on or off.

I have galbocca jet tub which is no longer working. I live in Lawton, ok. No one works on them here. Any suggestions?

Check breaker and reset switch.

no power motor seized up thermal overload button needs pressing in

I would do it chemically with solution designed for the job. Or maybe just put vinegar in the water and let it circulate for a while and then replace the water.
