Here's a picture of where the backwash waste line from my pool reaches the street. The water discharges over the top of the curb.
Neither my pool store nor Home Depot knows what the elbow actually is. The portion of the elbow that sticks down into the black rubber pipe is 1.5 inches OD. And it looks like it's the same situation at the other end of the elbow. But I don't know what kind of elbow that is or where I would find a replacement, either at a store or online. Anyone have a suggestion? I even checked with the outfit that built the pool, but they have no clue. Well, it was 1972, so that's understandable.
If I can't find a replacement, I was thinking of using epoxy putty to re- encapsulate almost the entire elbow as it sits. I don't know if the putty would adhere to the PVC, but if it goes all the way around, it would be pretty much held in place by itself. If it leaks a little, it wouldn't matter. What do you think? Should that be the first option to try?
Thanks for any suggestions.
