I have a Jacuzzi 250 sand filter system for my inground pool (approx 10 years old). Yesterday I noticed a pinhole sized leak coming from the lateral side of the sand filter (about halfway up) spraying a 2 foot long stream of mist. I am pretty sure that this hole is not a result from freeze damage since the filter has always been properly drained during winter. My questions are... do I have any choice regarding changing the entire filter body ? How long in the guarantee (if any) on the filter itself ? Is Jacuzzi still in business ?
