Title of Question: Cracked Sand Filter

 

Name: Roger    City: Stafford Va.

Question: Anyone know of a way to fill a cracked Sand filter? The crack is in the very bottom and is approx a 1/4 in long and not as thick as a dime. I have tried a plastic putty type material that hardens, but this has only slowed it down. A replacement filter costs $200 +. Any help would be appreciated.
