  • How to hard plumb your above ground pool but still making sure that you don't have to fight leaks due to pool flex. PVC plumbing your pool is very beneficial but because of the rigid nature of the hard PVC, any movement from your pool will eventually lead to leaks in the pipes. I solved this issue by incorporating some flexible Intex hose into the build.

    i do love that you used the flexable intex hose to leave movement so it won't break, but then mounted the pvc to a movable point which could let the pvc and/or connect to break anyway. but... it gives me an idea of how i'd like to do mine

    Intex is FPT and standard pvc is NPT, one is Flat and the other is tapered

    Most EXCELLENT video AND channel. My husband and I appreciate how simple and efficient your set up is. Can you please list the hose holder and the gray cutoff valves? We're going to ziptie our leaky hoses until we can do your EXACT set up. (Even ordering the Intex vacuum). Thank you for all of your tips. 🥰

      I meant specifically the plunger valve b hose adapter and hose holder. Only the gasket and Intex flexible hose were listed in the description 😊

    Could put some foam pipe insulation over the original flexible hose for UV protection. The pool is on sale now for under $400 (20x12) so I might grab one.

    How did you connect the black hoses from the solar panel to your system? Could you show that?

    Intex does sell a standard thread hose. The whole world uses metric, it IS standard.

    It's possible that the thread is mismatched in pitch, but there's definitely a difference that the hose end is straight thread and the PVC is tapered pipe thread.

      ​@don_wynn, are there any leaks on the flexible hose with the big Gaskets to pvc connector?

    • @don_wynn
      @don_wynn  11 місяців тому

      @@Poncho-23 there’s no leak there. I do have to reinforce the screw on nut of the hose with a hose clamp.

    For the Rubber Gasket in your description, I clicked on the link and there is no 1-1/2. I am just wanting to confirm which size you ended up going with? Thanks

    • @don_wynn
      @don_wynn  10 місяців тому

      hi, the inside diameter has to be 1-1/2inches. Looks like the seller may have run out of stock on the 1-1/2 inch gaskets. maybe you can try browsing around amazon to see if you can find it.
