Guys, any ideas on pool hoses for an above ground pool ? I have constant dripping even without the pump turned on. There are 6 connections altogether and 4 of them are fine but two just want to leak no matter how tight I make the hose clamps.
I had some cheaper, thin-walled black hoses and I thought I was upgraded to a much more substantial hose. There are PVC fittings at the skimmer, the return to the pool and then on the filter and pump. The fittings are threaded on one side and I've used teflon tape there with good results.
Trying to get a pool up and operating. Bought this house a few months ago and inherited a green swamp. I swear wood-working is simpler !
Thanks for any feedback. Searching the net hasn't yielded much information.
