My girlfriend just sold her house and has a whirlpool tub that she's never used. When you fill the tub there's a buzzing noise before the jets are even turned on. What could cause this? She closes in 2 weeks and it has to be fixed. HELP! Thanks

Welcome to the forums! Is there an inline heater element? If so, what temperature is it set at? If above 110 degrees, lower it to below 90. It may be in failure, since you have the humming prior to pushing the motor button. Let us know how it goes.
