The pvc going into my old 3 way measures a hair less than 2". Do i get the 11/2 to 2" or 2" to 21/2"? Old Hayward pool setup.

If it is 1 1/2 get 1 1/2 if its 2 get 2 It shouldn't be a hair less than 2 it should be one or the other

if you get the 1 1/2 to 2 your 2 will go on the OD of the valve . If you get the other it will go on the inside. Im sure both will work. I would go the bigger size so the water is not necking down when it goes through the valve

go to this link for poolskim and at the bottom you will need to purchase either the 1 inch or 1 1/2 inch adapter depending on your return size. It was worth every penny no more floating leaves in my pool http://www.poolskimusa.com/install.htm

the OD of the ribbed portion of the hose (after removing the smooth end piece) will fit in a 1 1/2" PVC coupler. I used this hose to hook up a kreepy crawly to an added input to my pool pump using 1 1/2" couplers. I had to remove the smooth/unribbed sections and insert couplers since those sections collapsed under the pump suction but once I did that this did what I needed. This was much cheaper than buying additional kreepy crawley hose sections (which would then have connections out of the water) and this hose is much more durtable and less brittle than the gray ones the pool stores sell for above ground pools. the OD of the ribbed portion of the hose (after removing the smooth end piece) will fit in a 1 1/2" PVC coupler.

I would suggest that you check with you local pool supply store. I expect that the threads would be standard for the Hayward and Pentair.

Any of the three ports can be connected to 1.5 or 2 inch pvc pipe. 1.5 inch pvc will glue into any of the three ports. 2 inch pvc will connect to any of the ports by first using a 2 inch coupler fitting. The 2 inch fitting will fit on the outside of each of the ports, this will allow you to glue the 2 inch pvc pipe into the coupling.

It may be 1/2 flow but 3/4 inch threading.... Like when you measure PVC pipe it's the size of the inner diameter, not the outside, so 1" is slightly larger than 1"

we do not have skimmer face plate to confirm measurement in the customer service office. Having installed may pools and serviced many more if you skimmer is 1084 Hayward this will work for you. Above ground pools have a standard hole size pattern on them this is considered "standard" and will work on many skimmers thanks

I took it to a pool store and they matched a hose. It is not here (another house/town) so I can't measure it. Intex is known to make their parts "proprietary"... you may need an Intex hose. Good luck

Standard 2 1/4" PVC piping. Only thing you really need are the inlets, wire, elbows and tubing, hangers too

I would suggest you ask your local pool supply dealer or check online. I am no expert on this question. I know the grids works perfectly for my particular Hayward.

I just called InTheSwim yesterday to ask them that question and if it was a problem that my pool pipes measure 2" but the feed line is 1.5" -- They said that there wouldn't be any pressure problems or undue stress on the pump. I will be mounting mine on my pool shed roof, which is about 7 feet off the ground. ~ Patrick

I believe you will have to swap the ball for a 2" as I did for my travel trailer. You will also need a reducer sleeve for the 1" shank that the 2" comes with. The one on this unit is 1 1/4". I cut a piece approximately 1/2" long from a 1" pipe and made a slit down the middle.

I don't have mine set up that was. I ran full size PVC pipe fot the drain. If you would like to set your system up for 3/4" or 5/8" drain your local hardware store or Home Depot or Lowes plumbing department could help you with that system and it would be very inexpensive. The only concern I would have is the inlet of the pump and the back pressure you would have trying to funnel it into a smaller outlet. You might wnt to call the pump manufacturer for their advice as to how this would affect the pump.

Using 1/2" backer rod, I still used 4 gallons but I have a larger shallow area and my gap was 1/2" to 3/4" all around.

I believe 3/4" is recommended but mine is on a 1/2" line and it works perfectly.

I hired a Hayward tech to install my new VSP. It was pretty straight forward but required the use of over-sleeve pvc fittings to connect the new 2"piping to the old 2" piping. I have been quite happy with the install and new operating sysyem.

Looks like the hose OD is about 1 1/2" on mine. But I suspect you can use different pvc fittings to make other sizes fit also. Its running now!
