Eheim 2026

[fry_lover]

Hello

I have an Eheim 2026, got it as part of a deal for a tank. The owner hadnt been using it recently and said it was working as far as he knew. But its leaking from the top, just below the head

It some water comes through the side when i prime it and also when its running.

Is their a part i can buy? what do you think the likely problem is? or has the filter had it?

Thanks

Try a light coating of petroleum jelly on the seals. This helps them seal better, and prevents them from drying out. I do this every time I maintain canisters.

Ditto.

That work's every time.
