The return jet in my spa that circulates water when the pool is operating was sticking out approximately 1/2" from the marcite yesterday. Noticed when brushing the pool/spa. Thought that unusual, so when trying to push back flush with the marcite, noticed it was loose and entire jet came out of the marcite. Someone had wrapped duct tape around the pvc tube of the return and just pushed it into the pvc pipe in the marcite wall to hold it in. I think it may be what they call an Inside Hydrostream (Hayward SP1421D)?? Is this kind of return jet glued into the supply pipe in the marcite or should their be a bushing of some type that holds it tight within the pvc pipe. Could this be something that the contractor carelessly jury rigged with duct tape, rather than using pvc glue to secure to the supply pipe? Never saw this before and need some help.
