    Default removing stuck threaded pipe from wall for polaris

    hi,

    There's a threaded pvc pipe in the shape of an L in our pool wall where we hook up our polaris. The pipe extends 2 inches from the pool wall and then makes a right angle down towards the pool floor for another two inches.

    I can't get any leverage while standing in the pool to remove this thing. I'm thinking of inserting a screwdriver into the opening on the bottom of the pipe and turning the screwdriver to get some leverage.

    make sense? any other ideas?

    Good! I had asked Poconos to see if he could offer an opinion for you. I'll email him and let him know that you got it.
