Hello,
We have had an issue with our pool settling that has caused strain on one of the pipes. One of the return pipes has been pulling away from the fitting at the pool wall. We had someone come fix it in 2020 because it was leaking like crazy. We started to close the pool today, and after draining below the returns, I checked by all of them. That same return seems to be separating again. I took some pictures so you can see what I’m talking about.
One return on the other side started doing this last year, but I used the pool putty on it and let it cure over the winter, and it held (I used the kind that could cure underwater because we didn’t drain below them last year). I checked it today and it still feels good.
What’s our best option for fixing the one pulling away now since it’s dry? Pool putty again or something else?
