Pool sand filter leaking
The output on my sand filter developed a leak. I think it's a seal that
needs to be replaced or cleaned and lubed but I need to get the coupling apart to fix it. It's 29 years old so the plastic is probably very brittle. Does anyone have experience with removing the coupling and repairing the seals? Here is the coupling: http://www.safaricabs.com/output.jpg It's a BakerHydro sandfilter. Here's a blow-up: http://www.poolcenter.com/images/8bakerii1969-83.gif another: http://www.poolcenter.com/images/8bakerII_hrv1984.gif I'm real worried about the coupling breaking when I take it apart. I'd rather not replace the coupling but I'm aware it maybe inevitable. Any tips appreciated. Thanks |
