Hey Guys,
1st post so go easy. We recently purchased a house the previous owner an elderly lady told me the pool was drain and cleaned 2 years ago but wasn't closed for winter. I cut the pump on and notice water running from the bottom of the pump, the skimmers had significant movement but the pool level dropped. I did research and purchased a new seal although it hasn't come yet. When I went back to look this morning I noticed a crack on one of the bolt housings. I was wondering if I should replace the strainer housing or if you guys think the seal should fix the issue. Also if I have to replace the housing how can I make sure i'm grabbing the right part it seems most can be interchangeable.
Thanks for the advice!
