Above ground pool plumbing?!

[gmarquis38]

We moved into our home last fall. We took down and brought with us a 24' dia AGP which I had installed myself years ago. The pool is in decent shape. My question: the owners of the house had a smaller AGP and actually had their equipment (filter, pump) in the garage. I notice two pvc pipes in the garage wall and one vertical pipe outside near where the edge of their pool way. I have no idea how to hook this all up and need some advice. I have a few pics that might explain the scenario.

Unfortunately, if those are all the 'ends' you see, you're going to have to work out whether the inside terminations are connected together to the single outside termination, or whether another termination is buried or broken.

At a minimum, to have your pump / filter inside, you'll need one complete line coming from the pool, and another complete line returning to the pool. Your pictures don't tell me whether that's the case, or not.

It might be better to simply start over, and run 2 new lines yourself.

I moved into my new house about four years ago. I still email questions I have to the other fellow's RE agent. Is there any chance of contacting them that way? It would save you a heck of a lot of time.

Other than not having to run the electrical and aesthetics... what is the purpose of keeping the filter/pump inside?
