    Ive been thinking of doing just this, but im curious what you all that have hard plumbed your AG pools do with your pump in the winter months, or are you all in warmer climates, seems I would have to be able to unhook the pump from everything else to bring it inside for the winter as well as my multi port valve on the filter?

    TIA

    When doing solid plumbing I would strongly recommend three quck disconnects and two PVC shut off valves. That makes repairs and storage a breeze.

    As Dennis said - quick disconnects - the only way to go.
    I find them to be a necessity anyways.

    This is exactly what we are doing, using lots of shut-offs and unions so that winter take-down is a breeze. I will post pics of our progress soon.. Next Wednesday is the day we get the new panel and liner! WooHoo!

    I'd love to see some pics of some AGP hard plumbing installs.

    Anyone have any?

    I would also like to see some pix. We are having trouble thinking about the aqualuminator. Seems they made it a hair smaller than the other fitting. Darn Baaaa staaads! Anyway, we love the light, but would love for some posts of photos of hard plumbing with and with out the Aqualuminator.
