    Replacement Bestway AGP - thinking of using the pump from my old one for through wall skimmer

    Thanks all, I ended up just going with the bestway hoses for now... With the GAME adapters I found locally. Also found this SP0729 type adapter, seemed like a good choice but the hose isn't sealing well. Also the adapter itself seems to be leaking. Guess I should have used more Teflon tape...

    That's the pump. Guess the question is can I use this? Glued/clamp to flex pvc? Or is there something else? I was hoping for something that didn't have the 1½ and 1¼ hose compatibility..

    Replacement Bestway AGP - thinking of using the pump from my old one for through wall skimmer

    What adapter do I need to connect 1.5" PVC to a Bestway / Intex sand filter? Searching keeps showing GAME adapters, but those seem to be for Bestway hoses to a regular, Hayward ect., pool filter. Thanks!

    Interesting, I had not thought of that. That would probably be the western end. Which is also the end with deck and stairs. Found a pic of the old pool. Thinking maybe the panel behind my son. The factory intakes and returns will be on the right hand side. New return eyeball left-hand side...

    Replacement Bestway AGP - thinking of using the pump from my old one for through wall skimmer

    No I have not. Probably going to be this weekends project. I have to put the frame together to see if the existing deck will fit right. And pick up a new set of foam boards. Any thoughts on the best place to put the skimmer and the included output eyeball?

    We had a Costco 9x18 Bestway for about 6 years, the liner and many of the poles were done at the end of last season. So into the landfill it went. Have a new Costco Bestway 12x20 to set up this year. Was never real happy with the over the side skimmer, going to add a through the wall Hayward...

    Increase in PH with aeration

    Do you have any additional pics? This is what I have now, for a 3500g AGP... Think it will work? Or should I go back to Home Depot TA was 170, pH was 7.8 before adding acid.
