I like it and would like to do the same but my drain plug at the bottom is being used by my pool heatpump...any suggestions? I do have a hose bib i'm using now but is very slow and a pain to keep hooking and unhooking to store. Need a more permanent solution.Hello All,
I have a CC 100 Cartridge filter in my plumbing system. I'm thinking of using the drain plug on the cartridge filter as a drain for my pool. I'm getting tired of dragging out the sump pump.
This is my idea:
1. Remove drain plug at the bottom of the cartridge filter canister. Its 1.5 inches threaded.
2. Thread in an adapter or coupling to 1.5 pvc.
3. Then a shut off valve then a 1.5 drain pipe.
4. When I need to drain down the pool open the shut off valve and turn on the pool pump.
Is there a reason this wouldn't work or shouldn't be done that way.
I think this would be easier than cutting into the plumbing.
Thanks in advance
Bob
