The Ripple Diverter Handle is the black replacement handle for the 2-inch diverter valves on 2020 and newer Arctic Spas Custom Series hot tubs. It is the round knob on the spa rim that you turn to send water from one group of jets to another. The raised three-spoke grip gives your fingers something to push against, so it is easy to turn with wet or cold hands.

When you'll need a new handle: Replace it when the handle is cracked, sun-faded or missing, or when it spins freely without moving the valve underneath (the socket under the handle has worn or stripped). A new handle is a quick, low-cost fix that makes the diverter usable again.

Will this fit my spa? Yes, on Arctic Spas Custom Series hot tubs built in 2020 or later. Older spas use a different handle: see the Bearclaw 2-Tone Diverter Handle, the Bearclaw Clear Diverter Handle or the Notched Black Round Diverter Handle. Match the handle that is on your spa now. Not sure which one you have? Bring the old handle to one of our three Ontario showrooms and we'll match it.

Handle fine, but the diverter is stiff or leaking? That is usually the parts under the handle, not the handle itself. See the Rising Dragon Diverter Internal and the Diverter Internal O-ring, or browse all diverter parts.

Quick tips:

  • Turn the pumps off before swapping the handle — no need to drain the spa
  • Fit the new handle in the same position as the old one so the jet zones line up the way you're used to
  • Turn diverters with the pump on low speed — it is easier on the valve and the handle

Frequently asked questions

Will the Ripple diverter handle fit my Arctic Spa?

It fits the 2-inch diverter valves on Arctic Spas Custom Series hot tubs built in 2020 or later (part number JET-109430). Older Arctic Spas use the Bearclaw or notched handles instead. If you're unsure, compare your old handle to the photo, call us at (226) 240-0114, or bring the old handle to one of our three Ontario showrooms.

How do I replace a diverter handle on my hot tub?

Turn the pumps off, remove the old handle from the top of the diverter valve, and fit the new handle in the same position so the jet zones line up as before. Check that it turns smoothly through its full range. You do not need to drain the spa to change a handle.

My diverter is stiff or hard to turn. Do I need a new handle?

Usually not. A stiff diverter is most often a dry or worn O-ring, grit in the valve, or a worn diverter internal. Clean the valve and replace the O-ring or internal first. You need a new handle when the handle itself is cracked or missing, or when it spins without moving the valve.
