2” Backwash Hose/Water Leaking from PVC Pipe

[Mendy48]

So I finally got a backwash hose as suggested here and it’s leaking from the pipe when I try to drain my pool. I’ve tightened it and readjusted it but to no success. When I initially turn on the pump to drain the pool, the entire leakage is spraying all over the place...it finally calmed down when I took this picture.



Are there any other clamps that would work for this kind of problem? My PVC pipe is 1.5” and to tell you the truth , I couldn’t find a backwash durable hose with 1.5” in width. I even called the fire department, but to no success.
So my thought now is that I may need a better clamp to hold this 2”x 100’ backwash hose tighter on my 1.5” PVC pipe.

Any suggestions?

You might be able to find a rubber connector that will fit over the 1.5" 90 and allow a larger, water tight connection with the backwash hose using similar clamps.

Can I get that online?

Is that just an elbow?

I would glue a 1.5” slip/barbed fitting into if it is, makes life easier.

I was thinking of a sleeve something like this:

PVC Flexible Coupling, For Pipe Size 1-1/2" x 1-1/2", 1-61/64" Inside Dia.

Flexible Coupling, Pipe Size 1-1/2x1-1/2"

Slide it over the short 1.5" PVC pipe stub you (appear) to have in the 90, then the backwash hose on top of that, then the clamp.
