Fix a leak is a blended, concentrated material designed to seal leaks in virtually any material. Fix a leak can be used to fix pool and spa plumbing leaks, pool leaks and spa leaks. It will seal holes up to 3mm (1/8”) in diameter and form a permanent seal.
This product is best used in fully foamed or a pre-built wooden hot tubs. Use 8 oz per 500 gallons for leaks in hot tubs. Use 32 oz (910 ml) for pools up to 18,000 gallons. Two treatments are required for large leaks. Leaking pools, plumbing and pool liners can all be fixed with Fix-A-Leak!!
The product is available in two sizes 8oz and 16oz – for my Spa, I am going to use the 8oz bottle which is 235ml. Pretty inexpensive to be honest.

What is the Application Process?
*Shake Well Before Using*
For Spas:
- Remove all cartridge filters before adding FIX-A-LEAK to the water.
- With pump running, add FIX-A-LEAK slowly through skimmer or in front of any other suction intake.
- FIX-A-LEAK must be re-circulated continuously for at least 4-6 hours per day, possibly for up to 2 days or until you have determined the leak has stopped.
- The product is very heavy and will settle to the lowest point rather quickly. It must be stirred back into suspension every 2-3 hours during circulation of the water.
- After the leak has stopped and given proper cure time (24-48 hours) you may return to normal filtration. *NOTE* When reinstalling your cartridge filter(s) run spa in it’s normal cycle for a period of 6-8 hours to collect any residue. Now remove filter(s) and rinse immediately under warm water before re-installing. You may have to rinse a second time.
- Treatment can be repeated if necessary.
For Swimming Pools
- Bypass FILTER MEDIA before adding FIX-A-LEAK to water. Sand filters: set filter valve to recirculate. Other types: remove cartridges DE elements from filter tank. Then proceed to circulate through empty tank.
- With pump running, add FIX-A-LEAK slowly through skimmer or in front of any other suction intake.
- After adding FIX-A-LEAK adjust suction to main drain. If this is not possible, the vacuum cleaner could be used alternatively, simply by placing the vacuum in deepest part of pool and connect to normal vacuum connection. Set filter valve to normal vacuum position.
- FIX-A-LEAK is very heavy and will sink to the lowest point rather quickly. It must be stirred back into suspension, either manually using a pool broom or mechanically with a automated pool cleaner every 4-6 hrs. during circulation of water.
- Continue to recirculate water until the leak has stopped.
- Mark level of water in pool and check for 2-3 days to determine if the leak has stopped.
- After the leak has stopped and given the proper time to cure (24-48 hrs.) you may return to normal filtration. Sand Filters: Set filter valve to filter and resume normal operation. Backwash out unused FIX-A-LEAK as required. Other Types: Reinstall filter into tank and resume operation. Rinse out unused FIX-A-LEAK from filter as required.
- *NOTE* Never let cartridges of DE elements be left to dry before they are cleaned.
- Treatment can be repeated if necessary.
