Possible Causes

Loose hose clamps, Worn or missing hose gaskets, Cracked hose ends, Cross-threaded fittings

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Unplug the pump before loosening any fittings.

  • Tighten clamps: Gently tighten hose clamps at all connection points. Do not overtighten to the point of deforming the hose.
  • Inspect gaskets: Remove hoses and check for flat, cracked, or missing rubber gaskets at the pump and pool wall fittings. Replace as needed.
  • Check hose ends: Look for splits or deformation at the hose ends. Trim back slightly and reinstall, or replace the hose if damage is extensive.
  • Re-seat fittings: Ensure threaded fittings are straight and not cross-threaded. Hand-tighten first, then snug with appropriate tools.
