How do you fix broken pool lines?

Answer 1

First isolate the area that needs repair and drain it. If it is only a hole in a PVC water pipe Get a piece of pipe the same size and cut it in half along the length. Clean both the pool pipe with the hole in it and the new piece of pipe with primer then put PVC solvent cement on both the patch and the pipe and hold it firmly in place until the solvent cement has set, To save you having to hold it in place you can get one or two hose clamps to do the job for you. If a large section of pipe needs replacement, cut out the damaged pipe and replace with similar pipe and connectors.
