Leaking Pipe

[dchackert]

It appears the pipe that leads to the pool jets is leaking. Since it does not appear to be an unscrew and replace pipe anyone know how to repair this?[img]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210727/01d17c3baa9da9df1fb512ac9d744560.jpg[/img]

Is that flexible pipe solvent welded into a fitting
If it is then I don't think solvent welding does the job

No problem solvent welding flexible pipe if you abrade the flex pipe first then cleaner and finally glue. A good chamfer on all pipework is good as it forms a good fillet of glue in front of the pipe rather than removing the glue if the edge is sharp and square.

Cut the flex pipe allowing 1/2" minimum to get a pair of pliers on. Try to push a screwdriver into the space between flex and rigid. Applying a hot air gun to the flex pipe remnants helps release it and pull it out with the pliers.

From my own experience, I will say that the repair of the pipe will solve the problem temporarily. Over time, you will have to replace a piece of pipe.
