RyanM Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 I'm trying to figure out what this white connection part is called. It's leaking where I have it circled.. My Google search skills have failed me. The pipe is 3/4 inch. Any suggestions on how to replace it also greatly appreciated. Don't feel like paying the only spa repair man I can get ahold of $400 to replace it. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDspaguy Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Well, that depends on where the small hose goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianSpaTech Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Warm up the soft plumbing with a heat gun and try and remove the soft plumbing from the rigid Tee and re glue it back in place... or I might cut the soft plumbing about an inch back and then cut/slice the soft plumbing back to the rigid Tee and get a pair of needle nose plyers and twist it out then re glue it. https://www.poolandhottubdepot.com/white-pvc-tee-3-4-slip-x-3-4-slip-x-3-4-slip/ Then reduce to 3/8...

It connects to another T then connects to the wet ends of the pumps. Hopefully that makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The joint itself seems to be fine, the glue seems to be the point of failure. I'll have to give heating it up a try! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianSpaTech Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 easy with the heat. Just warm it and then squeeze the soft plumbing with plyers and it should collapse and break the glue joint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDspaguy Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Then it is just a drain hose. I'd get a 3/4" tee, a slip by female threaded reducer, and a barbed adapter. Parts available at home depot. Just cut it out and redo it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
