    what is my best options to install SWG according to my pool eq setup?

    the SWA, it only fits the SWG as due to the incoming it blocks about 4-6" so I am not sure if I can put a union there, I will need some spaces for the union. What about option 2 where I need to remove the chlorinator, the issue there is too many union and I don't have a place to cut allowing...

    what is my best options to install SWG according to my pool eq setup?

    I’ve chosen the circupool run 45+, like yours. Should I remove the chlorinator or just put it where I’ve labeled swa (swg) & the flow switch in options 2 is fined then? This setup would be least amount of work.

    what is my best options to install SWG according to my pool eq setup?

    No suction in main drain or spa

    MK, you're right. there are 2 holes under the skimmer and nothing is covering them, it's open. Is this normal? What I've noticed, if my filter is on pool, all the suctions come from either the skimmer or vacumn, not the main drain, when I switch to Spa, I see the Vac Alert moves up with...
