I have been reading tons on these forums but still have a question relating to the actual blowing out of lines etc. I am sure every situation is different but still haven't seen the issue addressed at all. My question...
Where do you actually hook a shop vac (blowing)? I am a newbie but from what i can gather, I have one skimmer line and one drain line feeding my pump. I also of course have one return line going to two returns and a pool slide that has it's own valve. There is no heater or anything else.
1.So where would the shop vac get physically attached? Do I have to unscrew fittings and hook directly to the PVC?
2. Does the pump/motor get left outside all winter?
3. Does the DE filter get left outside all winter?
4. Also i have only located four plugs. 3 larger and one smaller. I assume the three larger go into:
1. skimmer 2. return #1 3. return #2. The small one is possibly for the slide or something like that?
