Figured out all my plumbing lines and how I'm going to re-plumb the pad.

I have three "return fittings" that have vinyl over them. They are unused and will be unused in the future. Installer put the rings over the returns and the vinyl during last liner install. The vinyl has stretched on each of them The vacuum return is stretched "in," and the two that are equalizer lines have stretched "out."

I don't know what it looks like underneath, so I don't know what kind of plug to buy that I can put in the lines to permanently plug them before they pool the new vinyl liner into the pool. I suspect that we will replace the rings connected to the ports.

Let me know what you think.
 
Depends if the returns you want to plug are threaded or not.

And any plug is likely to not be flush with the wall. I think that is why they did what they did.

Find a PVC cap that can fit over the pipes. That may be flush with the wall.
