has anyone had issues with the pump hoses leaking right at the attachment? they are both screwed really tight but still leak

Yes. Our pool started to leak after we filled it up with water. What a waste of water. It's OK right now. We patched it up with the adhesive patches that came with the pool.

Mine leaked a little at first. Check rubber seals inside the screw on piece.I love this pool, one of the best purchases I've made to date. Look up inflatable intex hot tub. That's an even better buy!

No sorry but we have been completely satisfied with our pool! No problems! Susan P, Warner Robins GA

I had small leak where hoses entered the pool. However, I think you are referring to where the hose is attached to the pump. If that's the case I would check the O rings and make sure the coupling is alined correctly with the threads. Sometime plastic threads and coupling can get easily out of alinement during installation. Good luck!

Mine leaked at pool attachment the coupling has two screws holding it together try tightening them it then screw it on. Worked on mine.

If i were you i would shut the hose valves so u can take the hoses back off and check the o rings make sure they are installed properly and arent bent then put the hoses back on

No leaks. No repairs. Works easily. Just make sure u spray them with silicon spray before u first screw them onto the hose, attachments. Spray bearings especially so they don't seize up with water, dirt, cold, etc.

I have had two and they have done the same thing, it must be a fault in the design. You can buy new attachment part from the manufacturer for about $10 which seems high. It might still be under warranty if you can be bothered to deal with it...

I would just try to tighten the pump hose clamp that could have came lose. Also when you put your hand inside the skimmer where the connection is there and tighten that little white ring. With all the water it can untighten I am sure.

Sounds like the hose isn't securely fastened into the slot. Make sure you turn it, and it sort of 'clicks' into place. Otherwise, I would guess a defective product?

It is probably leaking at one of the connections and running down the hose. I have had to retighten where it connects to the sprayer a couple of times. Hope this helps

Have had no problem with leakage so far on the two units purchased around last June (2013) for my large pool. I suspect you received a defective unit, or it was damaged somehow compromising the seals. Suggest you send back for replacement if possible.

Look in the center of the spray adjustment wheel. There should be a screw. Try tightening it and that may stop your problems with it leaking.

I did not use those either just make sure you have a tight seal around the connecting hoses and the pump works great!

Where exactly is it leaking, the hose connections? Did you use plumbers seal tape on the connectors? If not, you need to wrap the threads with it then screw on the hoses or you will get leaks.

I've never had a problem with mine--I've had it two years and it still works great. I'm sorry yours is leaking. Have you contacted the manufacturer?

I had the same problem, because of the bottom rubber gasket that makes it really hard to screw down tightly. I solved it by getting rid of the gasket and using plumbers putty instead. No leaks.

I have 2 of these and no leak issues with either. Where is it leaking? If you are sure it's a seal issue, return and get a new one.

I'm willing to bet you have a leak somewhere. If not then I would say it's a bad pump.

Is yours leaking any fluids by chance? Mine started to shoot just puffs of air 90% of the time and I noticed that it had oil / grease leaking from the black plastic bit just above where the connection is on the gun. Only used it 2x, no jams, never used higher than 100 psi etc. In the process of sending it back and getting a porter-cable.

I have connected 3 hoses together and have had no leaks. I also use quic connectors on all my hoses.

Make sure that the O rings are in the quick connect fittings, if not replace, lube the area where the O rings are and reattach hoses, I haven't had any leaks in mine.
