2 inch copper pipe exists between the outlet of the gas heater and where the pipes disappear into the ground heading to the pool returns / spa jets. The copper pipe is where I intend to install a GoldLine (Hayward) H40 chlorine cell.
Home Depot and Orchard Supply do not carry copper-to-PVC adapters in the size that I need. Also, I see that several online pool stores offer a "no sweat" copper-to-PVC adapter that utilize either one or two o-rings for sealing. These "no sweat" adapters sound easy to install, but I am very leery of how well they will hold up and am leaning heavily to the old fashioned copper-to-PVC adapeter which require sweating. Any opinions on which approach is best?
Also, where is a good source for copper-to-PVC adapters?
Thanks!
