I pulled out my circulation pump to clear a leaf blockage in the wet end.
After replacing I have good flow, but a leak from the impeller housing. I put
an o-ring and a translucent shaped gasket on the wet end head, as I hope
it was supposed to go. I will take this off this weekend and reset things.
I may have just rushed the tightening of the head assembly and gaskets.
Some advice perhaps.
Would a bead of silicone be a good or bad idea?
How could a replacement gasket be found or improvised?
When I have it apart I will likely post pictures of the
pieces to get advice on how to properly seat the impeller head.
A Laing E10 Spa Circulating Pump 3/4" Barb is the current production
replacement, but the pump and head seem to be working fine.
