ABSTRACT:
A hydrotherapy jet system is provided which generally includes a fixture body, a nozzle, and a fluid line connector. The fixture body is insertable into a hole in a spa tub wall. The nozzle is inserted into a front end of the fixture body. An optional cover may be provided over the front end of the fixture body securing the nozzle in position. The fluid line connector has a first end adapted to be snap fit to a rear portion of the fixture body such that a fluid-tight coupling is provided, and a second end adapted for secure coupling to a flexible plumbing conduit. The fluid line connector is couplable to the fixture body without tools by simply snap-fitting the fluid line connector with the fixture body. An O-ring is preferably provided to one of the rear portion of the fixture body and fluid line connector to ensure the fluid-tight seal. It will be appreciated that after securely coupling the fluid line connector to the fixture body, the fluid line connector is rotatable relative to the fixture body.
