Identifying a PVC round disconnect?

[CarlD]

If it's a disconnect it will have a big, round nut that you MAY be able to loosen by hand or with a slip-joint wrench. If so, there will be a rubber O-ring inside. Before re-assembly that O-ring and where it makes contact must be clean. Also, a thin layer of teflon lubricant (specifically for rubber--every pool store sells it) will keep the O-ring healthy for years.

Post the photo by loading it to Flickr, Webshots, Google Drive or whatever, and then linking to it. (Or email it to me -- poolforum@gmail.com -- but there will be a delay.)

Thank you Carl!
