The Current Sand Filter is at least 15 years old (probably 20+) and is developing leaks around the neck... so, time for a new sand filter.
Pool is 24,000 Gallon, Kidney Shaped (deep end 9' 6")
Current Filtration: TA100D TAGELUS SWIMMING POOL FILTER SAND 30" TM W/2" VALVE
2" TAGELUS Multiport Valve TA 100D Clamp Style 8" Neck
2hp Sta-Rite Max-E Dynaflow pump
The Stub-Up plumbing in the concrete and leading to the skimmer and jets (return and supply) are 1.5"
This is the system that was in place when I purchased the home... and, it has worked flawlessly.
I've always been curious about the drop from 2" to 1.5" pipe sizing... should the filtration system be sized down to the largest 1.5" Filter/Valve/Pump?
Thanks
