Leaking Pool Valet Cups
poolsolutions - 8-5-09 at 10:49 AM

I have a pool/ spa combo with almost all of the Valet cups are leaking. We seal them with epoxy, the repair lasts a short period of time and they leak again.

The cups are deep and cannot be reached with your finger tips, we are applying the epoxy with the blade of a screwdriver. H.O. cannot afford to have them jack hammered out and replaced.

Does anyone know of a better way of sealing them?

Thanks,

Bill

Pool valet sockets aren't that deep. Do you mean Shasta's Turbo Clean sockets?

The valet inserts should be able to removed from the housing set into the plaster. Try unthreading or most manufacturers make a "key" or tool to remove.
