Purchased 33 x 18 15,000 Gallon AGP. Hayward Super Pump VS and Hayward C4030 quad Cartridge filter, Hayward AQR15 40,000 gallon Chlorine Generator. Pool came with 1 skimmer and one return. I used a GreenLee punch and punched 2 additional holes on the far end of the pool.( 1 return and one...

Did not hear back from him yet but received info from another source. Punching holes is no problem. It was recommended to Install 2 LWS ( low water suction) inlets about 4’ apart and about 2’ from the bottom of the wall using standard Hayward SP1023 wall returns for AGpools. Then use a Hayward...

Mentioned my project to a customer today and he said his son-in-law works for a pool installer. He took my number and will inquire about adding the lines to an AGP. If I get any info, I’ll share it here.

Sorry, here is the pump : Hayward SP26115VSP Super Pump VS 0.85 HP Variable-Speed Pool Pump,

This was one of my top candidates. I guess it’s future proof if I ever decide to put in a slide for the grandkids. Was also thinking about adding a intake and return to the pool with 2” sch 40. Could not find a thread referring to this. Pool was delivered on Friday. Figured if adding any inlets...

Thanks for the help Chris.

Hayward SP26115VSP Super Pump VS 0.85 HP Variable-Speed Pool Pump, This is what I was looking at along with the maxflow vs.

I talked to Hayward and they gave me 3 dealer numbers to call and I’ve been unable to get a return call. I think I’m stuck with a IGP for my AGP. I was looking...

Thank You!

I was thinking of starting a new thread called “ Help finding a Hayward VS300 pump” what do you think? Kind of new to forums ?

Thanks for the links. Good read! The PowerFlo VS300 is playing hard to get. I’ve called 3 online pool suppliers and they do not carry the pump. I called Leslies and they told me they don’t carry it and I would have to go thru Hayward directly who they said are currently closed. ( I did not...

Thanks for your reply. The power flow VS 300 looks great. I will go with the above ground VS pump. Just for learning purposes, is it detrimental to install a IGP on a ABP. I do understand that IGP’s are self priming but are there other differences that would make is a non recommended option?

I’m a newbie to the forum but after reading this thread I could not resist having to comment. I have zero experience with large pools. My largest pool was 2000 gallons and I switched from the tiny Intex A cartridge to a small bestway sand filter/pump combo. The difference was incredible. The...

Hello, I ordered a 33‘ x 18‘ above ground pool with 15,500 gallons. It will have one skimmer and return line both 1.5 inch. . I’ve calculated my turnover at a minimum of 32 GPM based on one turnover in 8 hours. I have decided that I will go with a VS pump and Cartridge filter. My ultimate goal...
