Hi guys!
With the weather getting nice around here I am tackling some leaks in my hard plumbing. Specifically the male thread to female connection of my inlet to my pump / pump outlet to the filter / and the connection from the pump to the swg and the outlet from the swg. Basically, all my threaded connections. Awesome.
I had used teflon tape previously. Now I am considering pipe dope (after reading some of the previous threads on this subject) but on the pipe dope can it says not to use on plastic. Correct my if I am wrong, but isn't the hayward pump housing (black) plastic? As well as the housing for the intex salt water generator?
I looked in the hayward manual that came with the pump, but it was no help.
Thanks!
