When You've Got to Find a Leak in a Trailer Park... Part II

After pumping out the water from both the leak in the waterline and rainfall we dug out what we could then proceeded to cut the asphalt.



After the removal of the asphalt we began digging again until we found what we had been searching for.



There were three leaks coming from nylon Insert-T fitting.



The leak was releasing an average 6 gallons a minute. It must have been leaking for such a long time that even while underground the power of the leak wore down one of the hose clamps like a river does a canyon.


Time to replace the nylon Insert-T with a stainless steel one.




With the T replaced we turned the water and the leak was fixed! Now, it's time to refill the hole...
