So I have ordered a better pump and filter setup for our pool. Pentair SD60 to be exact. Since I will have a much better pump I was thinking of doing a few things below.
Intially I was contemplating replacing the overthewall skimmer with an inwall skimmer, however the idea of cutting the liner gives me heartburn. So for now I'm gonna stick with the overthewall skimmer. I am thinking though of using some PVC and adding an additional suction line to the pool by just going over the wall and down the side with the PVC, my question is should I put anything on the end of the PVC that is in the pool so the suction force isn't too strong for little kiddies hands, etc?
Also what would be a good depth for this second suction line, I was thinking of putting it towards the bottom of the pool to help filter water at the bottom.
I also think I am going to use some PVC and make a spray bar type feature that sprays into the pool. I'll use gate or ball valves on everything so I can adjust and or isolate.
