Hello All,
I am losing water at a pretty significant rate. The waste line, which dumps out onto the street, is dripping enough so that there's a constant puddle of water in the gutter (pic below). Hard to believe that a drip could amount to that much water loss, but it's the only problem I can see. Praying it's not a buried return line.
Anyway, it's my 6th season with the pool and I can only guess that the equipment is much older (maybe 15 years older or more) so the question is, do you think the multi-port is the source of the problem leak and should I attempt to rebuild the multi-port or should I just bite the bullet and replace the whole contraption?
The port is labeled Hayward Vari-Flo XL Model#SP0714T.
Any and all recommendations are gratefully welcomed.
