ix-A-Leak 32 oz Bottle by Pool Supplies
is a blended concentrated material designed to seal leaks in virtually any material. It can be applied for leaks in the shell and works equally well in the plumbing. Seals holes ⅛" in diameter and will form a permanent seal. Use 8 oz. per 1,000 gallons for minor leaks. A second bottle can be added for larger leaks. Do not use in excess of 1 quart per 5000 gallons of water. FIX-A-Leak has been thoroughly field tested under various weather conditions, and has proven to be effective in sealing leaks. FIX-A-LEAK is also an excellent preventative maintenance aid, as it coats all surfaces that it comes in contact with, it cuts down on formation of rust and corrosion.
Suction Leaks are usually known by air mixed with the water at the return fittings.
In most cases suction lines only leak water when the filter pump is shut off. Normal Circulation will simply draw FIX-A-LEAK away from the leak and if the pump is shut off the material will simply not get to the leak. You must reverse the flow of water, to force the material through the leak under pressure. Preferably 5-10 psi. until the leak has stopped. When this has been achieved, gradually increase pressure to 15-25 psi. to insure a proper seal. After sealing a suction line leak it is a must to leave suction off the repaired line for no less than 48 hrs. FIX-A-Leak requires time to cure and harden.
After the leak has stopped and given the proper time to cure,
(24-48 hrs.) you may return to normal filtration. Sand filters: Set filter valve to filter and resume normal operation. Backwash out unused FIX A-Leak as required. Other Filters: Reinstall filter into tank and Resume operation. Rinse out unused FIX-A-Leak from filter as required.*NOTE* Never let cartridges or DE elements be left to dry before they are cleaned.
FIX-A-Leak
is very heavy and will sink to the lowest point rather quickly. It must be stirred back into suspension, either manually using a pool broom or mechanically with an automated pool cleaner every 4-6 hrs. during circulation of water.
