Care & Storage
- Inspect O-rings annually for cracks or flattening.
- Keep threads clean of dirt and debris.
- Lubricate the O-ring with silicone-based lubricant only.
- Loosen slightly during winter if equipment is drained.
PRO TIP
Always use a silicone-based pool lube on the O-ring. Never use petroleum jelly (like Vaseline), as it will cause the rubber seal to swell and degrade, leading to leaks.
Always follow label directions and safety guidance. Keep pool chemicals and accessories stored safely and out of reach of children.
