Add a second return while constructing pool

[doc307]

Should I go ahead and add a second return in my 24ft pool while under construction. I know it will be so much easier to do now but I'm just not sure if it's needed. I have read threads about people doing this after they realize they have a circulation problem. I will be hard piping the lines so it wouldn't cost much more up front. I will also be able to cut the hole before installing the wall so I don't have to worry about keeping the shavings out of the pool.

I have a Hayward 1.5hp pump so I think I should be able to push the water pretty well.

Thanks

307,

If this is an in-ground pool it should three or four returns. If this is an above ground pool, I would go for two returns.. As you point out, not much additional cost..

Thanks,
