I can screw a 1 1/2" pipe into either of the pipes at the bottom of the skimmer.
At the moment, I'm considering the following options:
1. construct an adapter from 1 1/2" to 3/4", attach my garden hose adapter, and see if the water exits the drain at the bottom the pool.
2. something similar to the above, but using air pressure -- the bubbles would be easier to see, but I don't have a way of making a leak-proof connection at the moment.
3. screw 1 1/2" pipes into the two pipes inside the skimmer, then connect clear plastic hose to both pipes, run the skimmer and see if any water is pulled through.
Any caveats?
