    Hard Plumbed Above Ground Pool

    I just redid the plumbing on my above ground pool from the standard 1 1/2 inch flexible tubing to 2 inch pvc. I don't have a flow meter but I do believe it does appear to be flowing more water now. Before my cheaper 1 hp pump was running at an average of 640 watts and now it is averaging 700...

    Can't figure out what adapter I need for this fitting on my sand filter

    I want to replumb my equipment on my 24' above ground pool to 2" pvc. I was planning on using pump unions (are they 2 or 2 1/2 inch?) on the equipment, only problem is the filter has the male external threads on the return and waste ports but only 1.5 inch female internal threads on the pump...

    Active 20, S200, etc. for 2 pools

    I have a 24 ft AG pool and also take care of another 16x33 AG pool. I am thinking of getting a Active 20, or variant of it splitting the cost with the other pool owner. Is there any reason I can't use the cleaner for two pools? They don't map or anything right?

    Pool leaking

    I have a 20' round intex style pool that I have had for about 5 years. It just developed a leak around the seam between the drain hole and liner (I hopefully have attached an image to show the location, red arrow). I would normally use a vinyl cement and patch, but this is some kind of plastic...
