Just loss 2,000 gallons of water out of my pool!

So the trophy wife comes in and asks if I'm draining the pool? WTF? A slip compression union that I haven't given a moments notice to since I bought the place 20 years ago is spewing water. I take a chain wrench and tighten up both ends of it and problem solved. I checked the rubber seals and they're good and pliable, just super loose. Fortunately it just wet the ground. This is going to screw up my pool chemistry, but I've had worse things in my life.



The offending compression fitting.
