Hi all. First time poster, long time reader. I have an Intex 15'x42" metal frame pool, this is the 3rd year of operation. Took down during the winter after the first year, left up year round after last season.
I'm getting ready to switch my pump filter situation from stock over to a 1hp pump and sand filter setup from my grandfather's old pool. In the process, I am going to be cutting out the **** rubber tube returns from the Intex, and installing Hayward standard 1.5" replacement returns. But my main concern is the skimmer.
I'm currently using the over the side skimmer from Intex. I bought and am going to install the Hayward Dynaskim through the wall. I have read every forum about this install, and am still so nervous.
My main question is this. Should I cut the liner, and then install the butterfly gasket as intended? How has this method held up for the people have done it?
Thanks ahead of time for everyone's input!
