Hello,
I opened up my pool and turned on the pump. As soon as the pressure built up, the plumbing broke off from the yellow rubber piece in the images. I was able to put a plug in the opening of the jet to stop the water from draining.
I am fairly handy and have an idea of what I should do, however I am not even sure this was installed correctly. Is the rubber boot (so to speak)even the correct way to put this on? The plumbing was glued into the rubber boot. Rubber boot was slipped onto the outside return jet piece and held on by a metal screwed in clamp.
How should I fix this? Same way, but with a PVC union piece and the rubber glued back onto a new piece and reinstalled?
I had a new piece for the outside return that I can use. Images to show what I am working with. This is a 32 x 16 Semi Above Ground Doughboy Pool.
