Hey all.
My third year on the forum and this has been an amazing resource for me! I literally refer people here all the time, especially those I see in online platforms that are asking for help with their pool chemistry.
I just installed our new 18' Intex Pool and it appears I did not put enough plumbers tape on the vertical connection leading from the skimmer to the intake hose of the pump. I'm trying to figure out how to (temporarily) defy the laws of gravity and stop the water from the skimmer while I disconnect and repair the part. I just need to block the water from the skimmer entering the vertical outlet, or a patch over the entire skimmer? Even google isn't much help right now.
Any tricks or devices that can assist?
