leak problem

mnotta · 10/09/2011, 05:50 PM

i have a HOB eshopp skimmer model psk 75. recently i began to get a drip out of the pump on the bottom. it still runs perfect and is doing its job but now i have a bucket laying underneath to catch the water dropping. my question is does anyone know where i can get a replacement pump. if not does anyone have any suggestions on what to use to seal it up and stop it from dripping.

thanks for the help

Is it dripping around the the impeller cover? Check the O-ring. Call Eshopps to see if they can help. You can try some silicon grease on the O-ring.
