Waterway 150 and a Hayward ht100d, frog system too at the end.. need help figuring out plumbing and where to source the parts.

i’ll add a drawing diagram to this post here in a little bit, but I did buy 2 inch PVC shut off valves so I can create a bypass around the heater.

That Frog thing is trichlor so you want to protect that from going directly into the heater. It needs to be after the heater with a check valve between it and the heater. Or just remove it entirely. It is not a good method of chlorinating your pool water.

I figured it out to at least try and get it working.. I’ll have another post coming about troubleshooting the heater now as it turns on but doesn’t fire…. And my plumbing skill sucks so I have to fix a few small leaks
