After winter time in Texas affected significant damage of our pool equipment, only one option was to follow: completely replaced two manifolds, included new valves (was lucky to purchase), and associated PVC pipes.
However, one connection in between check valve and diverter valve wasn't done properly, and water is leaking/dropping, see attached picture.
Most likely improper glue was used, the material of valve required orange CPVC glue, but most likely technician used regular PVC glue. Question: is any solution how to fix this connection, without complete cut and replacement of new valves (which are not available). Possibly use some J-B-Weld to apply around existing glue, or mill some grove and then apply J-B-weld, or any other supper glue?... Would appreciate your experienced knowledgable response... Kind Regards, Fred .. with leakage -
