I have an Intex Pure Bubble Intex Pure Bubble Spa. The filters do not have any suction. Are they supposed to? If so how much? I do not feel anything.

For a test only, remove filters and see if you feel anything against the fitting?
If nothing either 'Air Lock', keeping it from priming the pump.
Or, bad pump!
Secondly, are you still dealing with a problem?
Use the comment link on this thread, and let the forum know if you are, if repaired, what did you do?

    Hi Mike, what do you mean by air lock and how do i fix it... im noticing that we only have suction from the filter closest to the pump but the second one at the far end of the spa has no suction and that filter stays bright and clean while the first one gets dirty quickly... its been this way since we bought it a month ago... we cant seem to keep our water clear and feel like this is definitely contributing to that problem...

    I know it's a pain, but don't let Intex get away with this, The 86" bubble & jet is their most expensive "top shelf" spa. I paid close to $1300 other pay as much as $1800 depending on site and time of year! here is the A.G. form for Intex in Long Beach..https://da.lacounty.gov/sites/default/fi... or do it online here..https://oag.ca.gov/contact/consumer-comp...

SOURCE: I keep getting a E96 code on my intex pure spa and

The code is indeed for GFCI issue.
But if you eliminate the GFCI not only is it fatally dangerous to the users of the spa. But the internal components know it doesn't have GFCI protection due to the monitoring of the Neutral conductor.
Probably had the original GFCI wired wrong to get the initial fault code.

SOURCE: We have a LED code showing on the new Intex pure spa. E97 Dry-fire Protection. What does it mean

Dry fire protection is when the heater has a call to heat but it is sensing NO water flow, therefore heater will be disabled.

A dry fire is when the heater comes on with NO water flow - damaging your heater beyond repair.

Causes: No water in tub, closed valves, clog restricting water flow, or the pressure/flow switch had failed?

Intex Pure Spa. I'm wondering if anyone has a wiring diagram for the base? Mice ate my base unit and I can't work out some of the wiring. Can anyone help please?

Question edited for clarity. 'make model (what it is) first 3 words
Question moved from 'Pure Cameras'.

Intex are pretty good with technical documents. 'Pure Spa' is the 'friendly name', but they all have model numbers.

Intex Pure Spa bubbles button does not work to inflate the tub....any ideas?

Answer is you are screwed. Same thing happened to me. Used it for 5 - 6 months in 2019, 5 - 6 months in 2020. Went to set it up in 2021 and the bubble air button crapped out - can't inflate it. Useless. Intex support told me I have to buy a whole new base (which is not actually available anymore because they discontinued it) and other adaptor parts for a total (with shipping) of close to $500. Since a) I only paid $350 for the whole thing, a $500 repaid seems excessive. Might as well buy a new one - but if I do it won't be Intex
