Never owned a pool before and bought a house that has an inground pool. I've read up on the Hayward DE filter and think I have a pretty good understanding of it. I have two questions:
In the skimmer there is a blue tube and when I unscrew it you see what's in image 2. I'm assuming that this was put in for the winter and I just leave it out. In image 2 where the tube was, I'm assuming that goes back to the filter and the other port is from the pool.
Second, in image 3 and 4 there are 2 plugs. Again, assuming those were when the pool was winterized. I'm assuming that I need to replace them with images 6 and 7. Does it matter where they go? Image 3 is toward the corner of the pool and image 4 is in the center. I'm not sure what image 5 is for. Assuming it's to plug something as it expands when the wing nut is tightened.
This newbie appreciates any help and thanks in advance.
