How to PVC Plumb your intex pool and stay Flexible.
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this video I show you how to PVC plumb your intex pool and still keep
It flexible. I wanted to switch my plastic tubbing over to PVC to make them stronger and last longer. It seems like the plastic tubbing drys out from the sun and never lasts very long.

Installing my new pool this weekend coming thanks for the pvc idea.
I have a Coleman 24x52” that we purchased last summer and we love it. Just started following you about a month ago and so far I’ve already added the hard plumbing onto our pool and upgraded to the vevor sand filter pump off of the video you posted. And I just told the wife we are going to be getting the new fountain you posted on your newest video. It would be a complete blessing if we were to win the vacuum. Thank you for all the informative videos you put out. Thank you and god bless.👍👍

I also recommend bringing your pump up to the same level as your inlets. The pump won't have to work as hard and will make it a more efficient flow. Great video!
👍....... i am actually about to buy a intex pool and watching all the designs to set up around the pool, decks, cleaning ideas, pluming, and ways to make maintaining and hacks to make more efficient. Great video and great idea.
👍🏻 I have the same 18’ Intex pool and your videos have helped a lot in setting it up. I didn’t even need to read any instructions! Love all the ideas on how you customize and decorate everything!

1st comment I have ever made, but you have exceeded my expectations with this great video and for the awesome parts list. Only downside are those lights... I am going to be in trouble for getting 6 (hoping she will overlook them and be impressed that I got all the parts correct on the 1st try and that I am also adding your skimmer.. flexing some skills...

Thank you for making this video and all others you've made; you're my kind of DIYer. I found your channel yesterday and been binging on it since then. I love this setup and honestly i watched this one in particular to see if you would address the height difference on the skimmer transition. I'm very glad you did as it keeps bothering me to picture water going up the skimmer and back into the pool. Again, thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge and showing us all your ingenuity.

Thanks for the help! I am in the middle of deciding how to plumb my pool with both hoses and PVC pipe. I bought an automatic chlorinator so I'll be installing that as well. The installation of the Hayward skimmer was easy and it works fabulous! Your video instructions are great! Wish me luck! Yikes!
