    I need some Intex hard plumbing help.

    I'm not sure that continuous flex is really the driver for the corrugated hose. Setup (especially with repeated takedowns) is easier with flexible hosing, as rigid piping would require everything to be placed exactly right every time. Plus, a lot of people cant really do freehand rigid pvc...

    Aqua bug cleaner- anyone know the mystery?

    I have wanda, I think they have an internal template (similar to a gear) that moves it along a series of circular paths, while constantly moving it around. This results in it covering all the area. Works great in my pool.

    I just did my ProSeries pool plumbing, all hard 1.5" PVC and no problems at all. The Intex hoses are a special size thread, you can buy an adapter that goes from the intex threaded fitting to a more conventional NPT fitting. This is what I did. Let me connect to whatever I wanted on the other...

    Hayward Wanda-The-Whale Suction cleaner for AGP

    Howdy! Just put together my ProSeries pool, 22' x 52". I bought an aftermarket Intex pump w/ sand filter combo unit (approx 2600 gph). The pool came with a skimmer, which is good for bugs and leaves, but sand and leaves on the bottom was a big issue. I bought one of the hayward ABG suction...

    Howdy!

    Hello, new to the forum, about to buy and install my first above ground pool in the coming weeks. I'm actually looking at the ProSeries 22' x 54" (retailer is local, and I have more comfort than ordering via internet and dealing with customer service problems over the phone). Any advice for a...
