Is the leak the result of a blowout?
Yes: Inspect system installation/expansion: Does the system match the original system design? (6-12 nozzles, up to 50ft) Having too few nozzles can lead to a blowout. Return the system to its original specifications and proceed to the next step.
No: Proceed to the next step-
Is the leak coming from:
a hose, fitting, or the pump itself: Replace the leaking part. Find replacement parts here.
between misting tee and nozzle: check for proper tightening. If tight, remove the nozzle and inspect the o-ring condition. O-rings can be replaced (pack of 20 MC46180).
a connection point between a hose and a fitting: disconnect the line from the fitting, and check for damages, burrs, or an uneven cut of the line.
i. Note: If mounting brackets are installed too close (less than 2 inches) away from misting tees, it may cause fittings to leak.
ii. If the line is damaged at the tip, it can be cut, but the positioning of system components may need to change to compensate for any significant shortening.
iii. If the line is undamaged, replace the fitting. Find replacement parts here.
