Fix a leak/Repair of leak 32oz (leak stopper) - i23.1

GENERAL INFORMATION

FIX-A-LEAK: is a concentrated blended material designed to seal leaks in virtually any material: can be applied to hull leaks and works well in plumbing as well: will seal holes up to 1/8" in diameter: will form a permanent seal Use 1 quart per pool up to 22,000 gallons. Do not use more than 1 quart per 5,000 gallons of water

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
*Shake well before using*

BYPASS FILTER BEFORE adding FIX-A-LEAK to water Sand filters: set up other filter types: remove DE element cartridges from filter tank, then circulate in empty tank

With the pump running, slowly add FIX-A-LEAK through the skimmer or in front of any other suction.

After adding FIX-A-LEAK, set the suction to the main drain. If this is not possible, the vacuum can be used alternatively, simply by placing the vacuum in the deepest part of the pool and connecting it to a normal vacuum connection.

FIX-A-LEAK is very heavy and will sink to the lowest point fairly quickly. It must be stirred into suspension, either manually with a pool broom or mechanically with an automated pool cleaner every 4-6 hours. during water circulation.

Continue to recirculate the water until the leak stops.

Mark the water level in the pool and check for 2-3 days to determine if the leak has stopped.

Once the leak has stopped and allowed time to heal (24-48 hours), you can return to normal filtration. Sand Filters: Adjust the filter valve on the filter and resume normal operation. Backwash any unused FIX-A-LEAKs as needed.

Other types: Reinstall the filter into the tank and resume operation. Rinse unglued FIX-A-LEAK from the filter as needed.

*NOTE* Never allow DE element cartridges to dry out before cleaning.

Treatment can be repeated if necessary.

Suction leaks are usually known by air mixing with water at the return connections. In most cases, suction lines only leak when the filter pump is off. Normal circulation will simply push FIX-A-LEAK away from the leak and if the pump is off, the material simply will not reach the leak. You must reverse the water flow, to force the material through the leak under pressure. Preferably 5-10 psi. until the leak has stopped. Once this is achieved, gradually increase the pressure to 15-25 psi. to ensure a good seal.

VERY IMPORTANT:
After sealing a vacuum leak, it is imperative to leave the vacuum out of the repaired line for at least 48 hours. FIX-A-LEAK requires time to cure and harden.

Miscellaneous Leaks: If you suspect a leak around fittings inside the pool (such as return fittings), lights, skimmer(s) or steps, etc. Turn off the pump. Apply FIX-A-LEAK directly to the leak using a squeeze bottle, similar to a ketchup bottle. Allow a minimum of 48 hours. to cure before starting circulation.

PRECAUTION:
Keep out of reach of children. May cause severe eye and skin irritation. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Harmful or fatal if swallowed. Avoid contamination of food. Rinse empty container thoroughly with water and discard.

FIRST AID:
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes or skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. For eyes, contact a physician. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. If swallowed, drink milk, egg whites, gelatin solution. If these are not available, drink large quantities of water. Call a physician immediately.

NOTE: FIX-A-LEAK has been thoroughly field tested in various weather conditions and has been proven effective in sealing leaks.

FIX-A-LEAK is also an excellent aid to preventative maintenance, as it coats all surfaces it comes into contact with, reducing the formation of rust and corrosion. Marlig Industries nor its agents assume any responsibility for the performance of this material.
