Leaking manifold Jacuzzi J-355

(1/2) > >>

dennisoates:
The leak is at the blue line  more towards the center of the pic ,at a coupling. How do I remove this and repair this major leak, it is from ice damage I think. It is packed with foam and I removed quite a bit. Do I have to cut a hole in bottom of the base to access this area,?  This is on the manifold and there are 8 lines attached to this and its a tight area. any tips or suggestions would be appreciead.

      Your tubs only 2 years old why don't you call your dealer, and you seem to be the original owner, not bought from some lady??   

TwinCitiesHotSpring:
if it is in fact at the coupling on what appears to be rigid pipe its going to be a severe pain in the you know what...you going to have to dig it back as far as possible and cut it with probably a "wire saw" in order to fit new couplings and a piece of flex pipe in there

  I'm not entirely sure you have freeze damage there.   Usually when/if  I see freeze damage it's at the pump housing/ pump unions or heater housing.  Not buried in foam at a manifold/connection.   And freeze damage is most times a big crack, not a drip, from a glue joint.
