Wow thank you so much for your continued help. I'll see what home depot has and try the super glue and it doesn't work I'll work on getting screws. Thanks again! Sean

Thank you so much for your help, I'm not very good with this stuff so I would like to clarify. Do you think I could buy some type of cover that will fit around it and the super glue to hold it?

For what ever reason I have a capped off port at the bottom of my pool, it wouldn't be a big deal but the pool cleaner gets caught on it and leaves keep getting in it. I'm wondering what type of cover I should use for this, is there any that would not require me draining the pool, maybe a...

I've been noticing white particles in my pool filter I think are the pool cleaner "scraping" the pool. They seem to be flat small enough to go through the skimmer and hard. I am using a ZODIAC RANGER which I inherited from my father who had a liner pool. I'm not sure what type of pool I have...

Thank you for your continued help. Yes I removed the old gasket and replaced it with a new one that was in the kit, I also used lubricant on it. It does look like from the picture the grommet is missing a thread but it tightened well.

that leak is at the top of the pump? Yes Looks to be under some glue/silicon? On the wet side of the pump, left to right, you have the motor/mounting plate/seal/west side It looks to be coming from under the plate, I'm not sure exactly where. I did replace the outer seal which the old one had...

I hope you guys had a great weekend. I changed out all the seals and unfortunately it is still leaking from the top. I thought it was going to be the large outer seal (nearest to the bolts) as it did have a flat spot but the kit came with one and it didn't help, I was sure to use liberal...

I think a 1 HP standard motor might be the way to go for me. I don't have 230 at the pump and the price is a bit steep for me at this time. I think just for troubleshooting this weekend I will order the kit below from Amazon (they can have it here by Friday) and see if it still leaks. If not I...

I was wondering if the 3/4 HP motor would save enough to make the impeller worth it. I think to start I might just order the, Hayward SPX3000T Housing Gasket and the PS-3868 Seal Assembly. If the leak goes away then I'll order a new motor does that sound prudent?

Thank you for your continued help. Would I be able to see the housing crack from the outside or would I have to take off the motor?

Thank you so much for your help, I took a screenshot of my cart does that look about right. Dropbox - Pool-Cart.png There are 2 motors in the cart because I can't decide on what to get, my calculations show I could save about $80 a year with the efficient one but I'm a little worried about it...

Thank you so much for your continued help, would I also need to replace the impeller to work with the 3/4 HP motor or will the one I currently have that is working with the 1 HP work? - - - Updated - - - I also found the below Energy Efficient Motor, do you think it would be worth the upgrade...

Thank you for the response I'm all for going smaller as I image it would be cheaper to operate. Would a 3/4 HP motor be ok with a pool cleaner, I am currently using the below...

Thank you for the quick reply, I will send the pic tonight.

Is there anyway you might be able to recommend a new pump? My pool is 13,000 gallons and I use a cartridge filter that is 75sq. My currently pump is 1HP do you think that is sufficient? I did the calculation and I don't think a variable speed motor is going to save me enough to make it worth it...

Thank you for your help!

Hello I noticed over the weekend my pool pump has started leaking I think where the motor joins. I have an Hayward super pump 2, 1HP. From my research I think there are seals that can be replaced although most of the info I found said it should be leaking from the bottom and mine is leaking from...

Thank you all for the responses. I'm not sure what type of pool it is, I think it is some type of concrete, it was built in 1967. I've enhanced the photo to better show how it is leaking Dropbox - 20160502_174237.jpg I don't think it could be the returns or my light as the leak slows way down...

Thank you all for your help, I tried to use the die today and was unable to find where it is coming. I checked the skimmer closely but did not see any issues. I will try the bucket test this weekend, we are going to have some rain the next couple of days... It is looking more and more like the...

Thank you both for the response, I'm so sorry, I missed the leak detection in the pool school. I agree the pool is old, I'm not sure exactly it's construction but it seems like it is concrete with one row of tiles at the top. The reason I thought it could be the tile is it looses a lot of water...

I've been having a problem with my pool leaking. It is really fast when I first put water in (I never have to drain my pool no matter how much it rains) but after a while it tappers off. I talked with a pool guy and he asked me to turn off the pump and monitor it nightly. The first few days it...
