    Installing Circupool Si-45 Plus and would like a sanity check please

    Ok, I have made updates to the photo, as I believe it caused confusion. The intention is to install the SWG and flow valve in the main return line. The main return line will be replumbed to accommodate by removing the existing plumbing as per the new photo. I plan on replacing the existing...
