I’ve discovered that I have a small air side leak somewhere outside my skimmer box underground.
I started digging and found a pool of water, and I can hear the air leak somewhere around the red circle in my photos.
Unfortunately I can’t seem to easily dig any further because of what seems to be rocks or concrete surrounding the plumbing, shown in blue. There’s even more rock underneath the water. I’m able to very slowly chip away at it with a hammer but there must be a better way. Do you think I need to rent a jackhammer to cut out all the surrounding rock and keep digging deeper? Can I replace or repair the pipe without having to dig anymore?
