Questions regarding plumbing sprays and solar heating

The bottom line might come down to this, though. I can't put my pad back together today without shelling out $90 bucks for a 3way. I can put a tee in today and replace it with a 3way later if it doesn't work If I do that, I would end up with the exact configuration you were suggesting but pre-SWG vs. post-SWG.

b,

In that case put it back together and see if works.... Worst case you will have to redo it, and best case if it works, you are home free...

Thanks for not 'spanking' Dirk..

Got some things cut up and planning on glue...but before I do now would be the time to make any last corrections. To clarify, that straight run into my Intelliflo intake is 7" but should be 10" (2" pipe). The consensus is that it's not a big deal and not to move my pump back 3 more inches?

B,

I doubt the extra 3" would make any difference at all..

Well, I have two new valves in my hand and now I'm just waiting for sometime this week to open up to where I can sit down and glue this all back together

 

[bizzle]

Got it all back together...stormy night, pool is green, got some work to do! Anyway, I'll clean the pad up and take better pictures in the morning so people can see how it all ended up, but here's what I got so far:

Nice job!! Feels good, right?

 

[bizzle]

I was definitely feeling proud last night strutting around like a rooster!

 

[Dirk]

Ha, just like me!! Admit it, how many times have you gone back out just to stare at it, sighing contently!?!

 

[bizzle]

Many times last night! And many more today although since it's a lovely jade color, but I'm not sighing contently just yet

 

[Dirk]

Well, one step at a time...
