can this tape work without draining my water out of pool can it repair the problem while water is in my pool?

Yes. It is relatively easy, but you should follow the instructions exactly. The area around the leak needs to be as smooth and clean as possible. The problem is working a repair in deep water. I wouldn't expect the repair to last forever.

I have used it twice, the first lasted 3 months , the second time longer, proberly my application. Easy too use

I don't think it would work on water pressure a pipe like that would have.I used it on a garden hose, and it stopped my leak as long as I didn't have the hose under pressure, soon as I put a nozzle on it, water just seeps out from under the tape.

Well, I would say yes and no...The tape doesn't really stick good first off. With some type of water proof glue you could get away with the actual light strip being pool side. Then when it comes to the strip connecting to it's power box source you would have to use some kind of water proof type like electrical tape to seal the easily exposed connect in/outlets. I hope that information helped.Good luck friend.

It runs off of suction, where as most in ground pools use "return" pressure as the source for the cleaner...so my answer would be "no".

Keeping bugs out isn't what this tape is made for, however it could work. This tape is designed to keep drafts (air) out. In my experience, the tape works well but may not stick well if it gets wet.

I think you could use it as a temporary fix for a hole in a pressure hose. Make sure the hose is clean before you apply it. I used it for a drain hose just fine, but there was no pressure in the hose. There is some flexibility but it is a thicker tape, so it's not going to be like regular duck tape.

If your pool drain is above your pool bottom and not flush it should be fine if your pool drain is flush with the pool bottom it moves, my drain is flush with pool bottom wasn't happy it didn't work for me. when I received the item it was in a box and the rubber which sits on pool bottom had a bend in 2 plaxces that did not flatten when I put it in pool and Barracuda hit the bends and moved the Unibridge moves off main drain. Good luck

Yes, my husband used it on our tile in a pool we have on our roof. He seems to think it stopped the leak. As a previous person said, he did grind it out first. We do live in the tropics so we don't have cold weather issues.

The spot where you plan to apply the patch needs to be clean. If it is not, the patch will not seal properly. Trouble Free Pools forum might be able to offer some advice on how to repair the problem.

We did not end up using our kit like this one. We used a patch from a pool store with there glue that they recommended. It has worked great so far. There patch was thicker.

doubtful. this stuff only works for a short time, then the leak will re-develop. Especially, if leak is at an increased pressure point.

Yes it works, I was skeptical, but it works. Just clean the area inside pool, cut a piece of vinyl big enough to cover hole, cover patch with vinyl cement and get it in there over hole quickly, then put gentle pressure on patch. Pool fixed.

I think it depends where the leak is. If it's in a flat smooth area a tire or swimming pool patch might do. If it appears to be near a seam or valve it may be more difficult to fix.

NO!!!! I used this today in the pool and it had a spot that was no longer sticking which mean water got in it and probably washed away the medicine..sucks b/c I just put it on this morning. It did stay on fine in the shower though but NOT in the pool!

I believe a patch for an inner tube or pool will do the trick or if you want to be even cheaper DUCT TAPE FIXES ALL. Lol! Seriously though duct tape or pool patches will do it. Once its patched though I myself would be a little more leery about when my dog lays on it because the patch or the tape could come off or if you have a Whisky, thats my dog, they could decide that the patch/tape looks interesting enough to play with and end up with a huge mess everywhere. Thats what happen with the first one I got for him lasted all of 5 minutes out of the box. lol

I cant say for sure ive never tested it submerged for exrended periods of time. It's really good tape so it might be worth a try. Id think about trying hot glue on the bottom of the tank as long as its dry it would probably bond well and could also be removed.

You do not have to drain the pool to get it to cure however you do have to keep the filtering (pumps) off while it cures.
