Hmm don’t want to mess anything up for sure. Judging by what I am seeing plumbing wise and finding on the internet pointing to initial installations leaving just a jet port where a vacuum port is intended to be placed, I have a sneaking suspicion that’s what the mystery piping and port are...

I assume the pipes leading into my pump at the front are the skimmer and spa return, but what is the pipe at the lower left with the blue closed valve (which has been closed since built)? My installer didn’t leave me any diagrams, didn’t label pipes, and gave me a cursory training sesh mostly...
