I started off with a new Intex 15' x 48" circle pool last summer. It came with the smallest pump, 637R, which pumped around 1,000 gph (I think). I installed a much larger pump - Intex 633T, which pumps 2,500 gph.
I'm going to purchase an Intex skimmer which attaches to 1 of the 2 strainers where the water leaves the pool to be filtered.
My question is this: Should I also purchase the larger strainer and larger inlet covers to replace the smaller ones that came with the pool and smaller pump? The water is churning in the pool now, but I worry that the smaller ones will somehow harm the filter motor if they are restricting the flow in any way.
