skimmer leak

[gonefishin]

That's just wrong. Did he say anything about the wet ground? Is it stll wet?

Later, Dennis

He didn't say a word about it. I figure I'm going to wait until I get home (in the morning) before I jump to any conclusions.

oh joy,

Hey,
After reading what happened i would be pissed off, first you went to a store and bought a brand new kit and installation after paying top dollar you now have a leaking skimmer, small leak but still a leak. and now caulk on the outside which mind you is a sore thumb, not horrible but should not be the case considering you bought new. I would not be happy in your situation and would complain to someone higher in the company. I really hope tightening the screws fixed the problem and the caulk is meant to be there. hope you enjoy the pool!

just my 2cents

Common problem, I think! We had our pool put in by professional (?) installers about a month ago. I had the same problem, and also could not get any help from the installers or the pool people. What I ended up doing was using teflon tape. Now, I now nothing about pools, plumbing or really anything like that - I am in medical field - but figured that it works on my faucet in the kitchen, so it certainly couldn't hurt! IT WORKED! Then, I noticed all of my other lines leaking slowly, where the gasket is, and did the same thing - now no leaks
