I will hopefully be putting up my Intex 26x52 this weekend and I would really like to use my old filter/ pump etc..."See below) instead of the Intex pump that comes with the pool.
I think I can pull it off with some mods I read here on TFP. I was just about to order a Hayward thru wall skimmer when I wondered if I might be able to use the wide mouth skimmer from my old pool. it is fully functional but I've only seen folks install the standard size. I wonder if this to avoid cutting the larger hole in the liner? Someone did say that the wide mouth was only an add-on to the standard and I wonder what it would take to change it back to standard and just use it.
Has anyone researched this or has experience making this mod. Your comment are welcome!!!
