A compatible sealant or Teflon tape are sufficient. **Q: I'm a fairly new pool owner and I'm assuming the pool level needs to be below the returns when replacing this fitting?** A: i only needed to replace the inside part of this fitting. So I did not lower my pool level. if i had to replace the ouside part i would still not lower the level. i would have pluggrd the hole until i had the new part in place. i can't imagine you would leak to many gallons while you made the switch. **Q: will this work with pool wall thickness of 1 1/8 inch?** A: Never heard of a wall that thick. I use them in concrete walls and retrofit them for my use. Im sure you could do same thing just put cement on backside to hold it in place **Q: If the inside of pool ring is cracked could that be the cause of a leak? Cracked between the 2 screws** A: I believe that I read that it can be. I have had some cracks in mine that I thought could be leaking, but after replacing them it did not appear that they were leaking. If they did leak, I suspect the rate of leakage would be small. If you have significant leaks I would change them first, but I would suspect some other cause. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by C***A on May 6, 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by S***Y on July 3, 2021* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***H on June 28, 2022* ## Frequently Bought Together - Hayward SP1408 In-Ground Swimming Pool Return Inlet Fitting - Hayward WG1048AVPAK2 Dual Suction Outlet, 1-1/2-Inch, White --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/6428676-hayward-sp1408-in-ground-swimming-pool-return-inlet-fitting](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/6428676-hayward-sp1408-in-ground-swimming-pool-return-inlet-fitting) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-07-14*
