Hey guys and gals..
Still working on clearing out the pool... One of the last issues I need to address is poor water circulation. On the deep end, the pool goes down 9-10 feet, but the current returns are only circulating the top 2-3 feet worth of water.
I've got an old, poured concrete pool (not sure the exact age, just bought the house a year ago and haven't found anything specific to the pool that the previous owners left). The returns appear to 3/4" PVC pipe through the concrete. There's some sort of adapter in the ends that are about 1-1.5" long that end in threads almost 1.5" across. I've got a couple of hex-shaped caps that screw on, but two are missing and the other two provide no way to direct the water flow.
I've exhausted all the pvp options at the local hardware stores. Anything 1" is too small to attach on the adapters, anything 1.5" is too big and falls right off.
Heck, I've even tried that "search" function and I'm not having luck finding someone with a similar problem or a magical solution. Anybody out there have any ideas?
