I've got 40' of 2" and 40' 1-1/2" plumbing set in the trench. Boy, oh boy, there's a big difference between gluing 1" PVC for irrigation pipe and 2" pipe for pool plumbing!! Thought it might be a good Idea to pressure test before I back fill. Is it just the underground plumbing that's tested or do I test from the pool side (Before the PVC is connected to pool unions.) to the equipment pad, including pump and filter? Or should I simply run the pump before I bury everything??
I realize there are safety concerns with pressure testing, but I think I can do it. What say you guys.....Thanks, Bob
