The joint where the pipe into my pump joins the suction-side Jandy valve has been moist, but is now dripping. I've searched the forums and seen ideas about patching and repairing which have been helpful. I'd like some advice on the best way to fix this particular issue because it's all plumbed very tightly. I'm game for trying the Jedi pipe-saving technique on the valve or T's if needed.
An unrelated issue is that the ball valves on the returns are somewhat difficult to turn (the girls have me or an older boy do it), so it may be an opportunistic time to replace those, although I'm not looking for ways to spend more time on this!
I've attached photos to cut a few thousand words from my post. The red ellipse shows the leaking joint.
Thanks in advance for all your help. I've been using BBB since last season and appreciate the knowledge you've all shared.
