Hello,
Our pool was victim of last week long deep freeze here in Texas & I was not prepared for what this would do to our pool. After going many hours with out power, my pool pipes did freeze up. The initial result was one broken pipe, which has been fixed. Since this pipe was fixed, the pool has started back up & all seems to be running smooth. We have not tested the heater, as we are low on propane, due to said freeze. Once I get refilled, I will be checking that. However since it has gone back online (Wed Evening) I have noticed a couple of things, there seems to be a small leak at the bottom front drain of my Tagelus High Rate Sand Filter. The fitting is not loose. Also, there seems to be a small leak at my Mastertemp 400 Pool & Spa Heater - I can't seem to see where this water is coming from, it is in the front right side of the heater, where the front right leg is? My pool is only 10 months old & I am a first time pool owner. I am trying not to worry too much about this, but it is hard to do when the equipment is all brand new & of course my pool company is very busy, so I am on a wait list! Any ideas what might be the issue with these two leaks?
Any advise would be great!
