Great thoughts Adam.
My only thing is I like to have 2 valves. One for the main drain and one for the skimmer. Gives me room to vacuum things better. Your sketch is close to what I was thinking as well. I also thought to leave it as is and just cut out the PVC in the front and just replace it. That way the pipe is mostly already there. The biggest thing I thought of was to take the pipe from the control valve going to the returnes and clean that up so it goes straight back to the house and I can attach it with another clamp. If you look at the pics, you will see how messed up that is.
You definitely gave me some more things to think about. Thanks for your time to this as I do want to maybe clean it up a bit more.
If you come up with anything else, then let me know. I may play with some thoughts later on in the winter and post them as well.
Awesome paint schetch. Where did you do that?
