Hi,
I’m filling up my Intex ultra xtr 12x24 for the first time. As the water reached the dual outlets, I have now noticed a leak where the two outlet hoses connect to the connector. Photos attached.
There is a small stream coming from each hose and I have tightened the metal clamp as much as possible. As you can see in the photos, I brought each hose only up on to the connector to where the plastic ridge in the hose was in line with the o-ring on the connector. Was that correct? Or should the hose go further up on to the connector? Directions weren’t super clear.
Anyway, any advice for correcting this leak? I’m afraid if I loosen the metal clamp, the hose may come off completely and the force of water will prevent me from reattaching the hose until the water drains down below the outlet.
Thank you!
