I ended up taking it apart and reinstalling with less PTFE , and touch wood its bone dry. The 4560 still hasn't arrived, i actually found a adapter to connect what was missing in a store not 2 miles away ( and I'm slightly embarrassed i didn't think of them prior ) Thank you.

I did yes, it appears the one leak not on the intex pipe funnily enough has self sealed woohooo :)

So the water level varies very slightly in a couple of places, maybe the thickness of one of the white lines of the pool, so success huzzah. I just managed to get my solar powered pump connected to the intex hoses without chop shopping them. sadly UPS it appears decided to throw the solar panels...

Thanks all. I Managed to find connectors that actually fit fine on the inTex pipes. I just came in from hooking it up and the only slight leak ( so far ) is on the actual pumps intake connection ( wishing I’d used the outer thread now ) it’s only a drip every 5 seconds or so. Maybe it will self...

Thank you, i have some parts on Order, but i also intend on heading out today to try source these parts, should you be kind enough to post.

Thank you i have ordered the Game adapter, and the Charlotte connector.

So the Charlotte pipe 1-1/2 can be bonded into these pipes, then the GAME 4560 can be directly screwed in and the Intex attached pipes attached to them? Sorry just making sure i am not being dense.

Right i see. the pump only has 1 internal thread connector. i assumed the order went pool return-pump-sandfilter-swg-pool, but i think you mean the intex adapter will work to go to the sand filter?

Pump only has threads on the inside of one connection. ( one homedepot connection threaded on but isn’t much good )

Thank you, i will not pretend to fully understand what you said but it gives me some pointers for google. Our pool is ready for salt now ( well was until storms rolled in ) so i am keen for the family to enjoy it asap. And i am trying to avoid public places due to us looking after my wifes sick...

Sorry if my terms or descriptions are wrong this is still a learning curve for me, the pump is a 1/2 hp solar powered Pump. I simply want to put it in place of the intex pump. So need to get the pump connection to the intex return, and then send it on to the sand filter. After that it’s all...

Home Depot was a bust, $19 of nothing :(

Links do not work by the way :) i shall search though thank you.

Thank you, i literally just finished ordering $19 of everything i thought would work, hopefully it works or at least tides me over until i can get something more suitable. thank you everyone. i now have hope :)

Thanks, I am trying to avoid the outside world as much as possible as my wife and i are looking after her Grandmother who is recovering from a cancer operation, its why i was hoping to find something i could pick up rather than get out amongst the general public. the ID of the 2inch pipe seems...

maybe this? i would not be using the nut. https://www.homedepot.com/p/NIBCO-1-1-2-in-PVC-DWV-Hub-x-SJ-Trap-Adapter-C48017HD112/100345781

Thank you, i am still VERY new to the pool building scene, and although that is not available locally, it gives me a idea to hunt for tonight. thank you

I feel this maybe one of those “ right in front of My face “ answers, but I’ve looked And I am still drawing a blank, I need to find a reducer from a 2 inch 90 degree to a threaded intex pipe ( I think they are 1.5 inch ) I hope Lowe’s or Homedepot have something i can go pick up, and I am just...

I do enjoy projects, but i also work for myself from home, so many things i enjoy i have to try not to get involved in, because play time = not working time = no money haha. spending time with the little guy and wife in the pool is a good aim though. thank you again :)

I think its closer to 1 inch, I can still lift the pool that side so i stuck some ply under 4 legs and under the tarp, now its about the thickness of one of the white stripes haha, i do not know how much settling will occur as the pool is still only maybe half full, my little boy is itching to...

So sanded and leveled I thought. I got up this morning to see that one section. Maybe 3 posts is very slightly lower that the rest of the pool which is all perfectly level. These 3 sections are maybe 1/2 a square lower. Should I be worried or is that acceptable. thank you.

I feel I’m about to go in ever decreasing circles leveling and flattening on infinite repeat. hahaha. Thanks i really hope to get the pool up saturday at the latest. I shall keep you informed.
