need help i have a leak

[lkrus]

putting up a new intex pool and thought it would be good to install the thru wall skimmer mod ... all went well until last night when the water level reached the skimmer it started leaking. what can i do ??? ugggggg

Did you use a butterfly gasket over the liner?

How bad is the leak (drops or pour)?

 

[lkrus]

Yes I used butterfly gasket, and last night it was a
Good trickle runNing down the side, this am seemed to be more of a drip

 

[lkrus]

I wonder if I went wrong by installing it before there was water weight on the wall?

 

[Bama Rambler]

I wouldn't think so. Did you use sealant on it?

You might lower the water level and take it apart and see if there's anything obvious. If not you can try silicone sealant.
