    Questions before booster pump install

    Thank you for your response. I was informed by other members that my current setup is not recommended in what I'm trying to do. suction type vacuum > pool wall inlet Hayward Vac Lock Safety Fitting > 1" inch pipe inlet > 3/4 pump > 1" pipe out. I'm now looking into robotic cleaners.

    Questions before booster pump install

    Questions before booster pump install

    I'm confused because the pool use to have a booster pump setup for a vacuum cleaner. The lines were capped. Unfortunately, I don't know what was previously installed. I know the the old booster pump is a 3/4 hp. The inlet on the pool wall fits a vacuum pool hose.
