I moved into my house about 7 months ago and the pool was working fine but recently the caretaker system on the bottom side of it was leaking some water could tell it was because the Dirt around it was moist, so I attempted to seal it with pool putty and the previous owner had put silicone on the whole outer ring part of the system . And to get to the conclusion of my ask for help today I was cleaning the pool due to an algae problem and I tried to connect a cleaner tube to the skimmer and there wasn’t almost any suction so I go to restart the pool/pump and when I did the caretaker system was leaking air and water from the top part of the system right by a tiny nut screw and it is leaking a bit more water than it did before
