I'm swapping my old pump out and when I b ought the new VS, they suggested I purchase the unions. Is there a reason why I want unions on the two lines on the pump? Is it only for ease of changing the pump or removing it in the future?
Unions on intake/outflow

Makes it much easier to work on your system. If you find you didn't get a tHreaded connection tight, you can disconnect the union and tighten it or remove it and add dope. Well worth it.

This is why I asked if they are worth it, as the onyl ones I can find are the slip ones. So if I ever change plumbing, I have to keep the union and the attached PVC as there is no pulling it out later. Lowes had unions with one side threaded however.
