Hello

Our whirlpool jacuzzi tub is leaking. The water was pouring in the crawlspace. We think it has a crack. We are looking for a company that can replace it. Maybe Lowes?
Do you all know who can replace it all I see is pool companies.

I'm not clear about what type of tub you have. If a spa tub, contact https://www.risingsunpools.com/

I don't think a crack would cause water to "pour into the crawlspace." In other words if it were big enough for water to "pour" out you wouldn't have said "we think it has a crack"...you would have said "yep I see a crack".

Sounds like a plumbing issue, cracked pipe, failed joint, etc. Call a plumber first.

You mean the tub in your bathroom or a stand-alone hot tub?

If a bathtub, then yes Lowes or HD should have it:

There should be an access panel for the whirlpool tub (they are required to be readily accessible in most cases). Open it up and take a look....most likely a plumbing leak. A crack would typically be pretty easy to see.

Fehr's Plumbing put in our whirlpool tub. Very happy with the results. I'm sure they could repair yours, or put in a new one.

Yeah, under the tub but within the contained "frame" of the unit there's a pretzelwork of pipes (hot, cold, drain, jets.)
