Is the leak problem at the connectors fixed?
764630
No. Both of the hoses I own have the same problem. I just wrapped tape around the connectors and don't use the function that shuts them off at the connector, because then they leak right through the hose. It's a problem I just decided to live with. Otherwise I like the hose.

No, it is not. Had hose a few months and it is falling apart. What a waste of money.

I use mine at my coast house to clean my deck. I've never experienced any leaks, but I don't use it often.

So far I have not had any leak problems. But I will put it to the test today and let you know.

Nope. I've owned three, zero leaks. Could it be overfilled? If you can verify the leak (maybe from a line?) I'd send it back. Good luck!

Yes ours is leaking also, what have you tried? My husband thinks he needs to tork the screws tighter. Wanted me to see if anyone else had this problem and how they fixed it.

I haven't had any problems with the panels but I did in the beginning with a couple of the connections. They eventually stopped dripping.

Have had no problem with leakage so far on the two units purchased around last June (2013) for my large pool. I suspect you received a defective unit, or it was damaged somehow compromising the seals. Suggest you send back for replacement if possible.

Replace the entire unit; at least, that's what the folks at InSinkErator told me. The unit I had did not feature a replaceable connection at the top which is where it leaked.....

Yes the connection is standard. BTW be sure to tighten all the hose clamps before installing. I didn't and several months later it started leaking like crazy. Not a big deal totake it down and tighten the clamps but better to not have to.

You're certain it's from the power cable? One time i experienced the same, however, it wasn't the cable but the seal between the canister and the lid. The rubber seal (which is just a rubber square) was twisted and not sealing correctly :( Check this, otherwise send it back for a replacement. That does not sound good if the power source is leaking:(. Good luck. I've had great luck with this product, i hope the same for you

No it should not leak at all. I would try to re rap the fitting with Teflon tape or pipe dope again to see if that stops it. If you can tell it is coming from the regulator I would send ot back for a replacement.

I have had mine for almost 6 months without a drop of leaking. Perhaps try reassembling it.

Where exactly is it leaking, the hose connections? Did you use plumbers seal tape on the connectors? If not, you need to wrap the threads with it then screw on the hoses or you will get leaks.

I have had this problem 3 times. Returned twice, third time found a fix online: 1) check the gasket, as mentioned. you may need to flip it 2) use pliers or a vice grips to "overtighten" it. If you follow the instructions and tighten by hand, you will have a problem with the metal fitting leaking. This is technically a defect, but it can be corrected very easily.

In mine, the rubber washer was not fully inside the female end, and water came out there, but the fix was easy. That is the usual place for leaks - at the connection points.

I had the exact same problem and is was leaking until I really torqued it down. With the extremely course threads, typical for this connection, it was a matter of maybe a millimeter between sealed and not. We chose not to use it. I may try another, thicker, gasket and try it again but I don't know if that will help or not. I have not encountered this problem with other hoses or connections. I was replacing the same hose and connections that was in good use for about two years and never had this problem before. I was replacing the previous hose because the hose itself just wore out due to high usage. I had the exact same problem and is was leaking until I really torqued it down.

Our 1st one leaked when under water, apparently where the wires comes in on the bottom side was not sealed well, our replacement so far does not have this issue.
