    Default Re: Convert intex pool from 1.5 to 2" hose

    Thanks for the reply PoolDoc. I will try and give a little more detail.

    What I have is this pool.

    It came with this filter/pump. My desire was to upgrade to a salt water chlorination system, so I purchased this swcg. Running the system I got nothing but low flow alerts, so fine I will upgrade my pump. I read up a bit, and got this pump (minus the chlorinator).

    Although both have adapters for the original 1.5" hoses, and the system is working fine, I am wondering if it would work finer if I upgraded the pool ports to 2".

    =========================

    I might have the hose sizes wrong.

    1. It wouldn't work 'finer'.

    2. I think so, too.
