We hooked our pump and filter up today on our new pool.
As the water reached the skimmer, (haven't turned on pump yet) water was coming out of waste, which I was expecting but water is also leaking out of the C-clamps that hold all the housing on top of the filter.
I took it apart again. wipe the O-ring off and wiped the inside where the O-ring lay. My husband used vaseline....(yikes...is that bad?)Put it all back together....c- clamps really tight....and still leaking....argh
do you think the O-ring is still the issue? Is there anything else I should check?
