Eheim 2028 Canister Filter Leaking

[mrvinman]

Hi,

After two years of use my Eheim 2028 is leaking.
It looks like it's coming from the pump head.
Do you think changing the head gasket and rubber bushings from the media trays would help?

Thanks,
mrvinman

Does it have the red o-ring? usually you just need to reset it. PS my 2013 is over 23 years old and still works good.

have you tried removing the o-rings and treating them with some silicone spray?

i would try to replace the oring at the motor head first. after that i would look to the output nozzles.

Thanks for the replies.

I ordered a new o ring. Hopefully that will solve my problem. If not, I'll try the nozzles.

Thanks again.

Mine was oring as well

Great filters, though.
