These are standard corrugated pool hoses that slide and clamp onto a male cone adapter. My instructions said not to use sealant. "It will leak!", they said. I think I've redone every connection at least once, and now that the pool is full and chemically balanced, it's a real pain when one blows. I managed to stuff the dog's tennis ball into the bottom of the skimmer to stem the tide once, but plugging the eyeball securely is a lot trickier.
So--what's the best way? Especially in a wet situation? My most successful joins have been dry, pressure free, and cured for 24 hrs. I'd really hate to drain the pool down to below the eyeball...
