Leaks drops through housing on the siphon inlet hose connection from siphon to hose near the clamp. No damage appears on the hose. The drop leakage is through the holes at the housing/siphon. Picture enclosed. Not sure the cause of leakage. pbajaj@dc.rr.com attached the following image(s):

Not sure the cause of leakage. I used to see quite a few of these and usually it was hard water building up around the nozzle where the water is injected in. It caused water to spray in at an odd angle, splashing some out whenever it fills. Try cleaning it up and scraping away any hard water deposits you find. Hope that helps.

I think you are absolutely correct, I saw some hard water (white) deposits at the nozzle. Never thought they would cause the water to deflect..

What is the best way to clean up the nozzle
1. Remove the clamp and hose
or just try to clean from outside without removing the nozzle
