i am having trouble identifying and finding an adapter for a port on the side of my pool that is in parallel with the suction side of the pool (skimmers and main drains) that is labeled "pool sweep". there is a 3-way diverter where this connects to the rest of the suction side plumbing at the pad, and this port is normally closed. my inference is that one would attach either a suction-driven robot or a pool vacuum to this port in the pool and open the diverter in that case.
the port in question is roughly 1.5 in in diameter, threaded, and is nearly flush with the wall of the pool. i would like to get a threaded fitting that allows me to connect to my 1.5 in vacuum hose for easy vacuuming without using a vacuum plate and a skimmer basket. after some cursory searching, i have not found anything obvious that would do the trick.
possibly relevant: this pool install was completed in late 2008 and most of the equipment originally installed is jandy.
thanks for reading!
