Intex Valve Upgrade

[@cl4367]

I did this with the exception of having a kid hold a bowl over the hole from the inside while cutting the larger hole. Then quickly slipped the new jet in. Worked great. Good video.

Hi Daniel. Where did you find the complete set like he's using??? I can find the return set with a different inlet valve. I need the one like he has in the video.

[@cdwraw]

So after waiting 3 weeks, I finally got all my parts in. Against my wife's wishes, I cut a big square hole and cut both inlet and outlet holes out larger. No I have a salt water sand filter using all 1.5" intex parts. And a skimmer No problems. Just took a few hours all together to set up. Thanks for the very informative video.

[@riverviewrescue1371]

I had an intex pool before had upgraded all my pieces. I have a summer waves this year & it has the small pieces I've been going crazy on trying to be able to add my intex pieces like my roomba vacuum.

Thanks so much for this video, I got earlier this year a Coleman power steel 16x10 pool. Just got a Intex snad and salt water filter system. And of course they do not work together. Been looking into adaptors and all, but wanted to use all Intex inlets and outlets. I will give a update in a few weeks when my parts come in.

[@willglanville2150]

I was so careful, but mine leaks like a sieve around the newly cut holes. I’m going to try to patch over the holes completely and try again. Considering buying additional gaskets so I can have one on the inside and one on the outside. If the patches don’t work, I’m guessing the only option will be replacement.

[@nikdi5743]

I just drained my pool to do this….wish me luck 🤞🏾

[@kirbalicious420]

I inherited a 12×24 pool with two outlet ports and only one inlet. In the off-season I'm gonna buy new valve's and get rid of our split system. Gonna send one outlet hose to the existing sand filter and thesecond outlet to a cartridge filter or a second sand filter I may install. I would like to cut a whole second return valve but it being a larger rectangular pool I'm thinking about buying two large patches, using your gasket trace technique to cut holes in matching patches. Then stick both patches on the inside and outside of the pool to brace the pool lining before I cut a hole in the pool. I only wanna take this precaution on ours because it's 8,400 gallons and the existing return port is actually done the same way by the manufacturer intex.

[@MortenWork]

Good luck with your project

Thank you so much for this

[@svorwerk]

Quick update for anyone else doing this, after watching this video and despite my initial hesitation to cut into the liner, this worked like a charm. I used the same utility knife seen in the video, got it from Home Depot, slices through like butter so definitely go SLOW! My valve stem piece has a vacuum tube coming out the top, just make sure to unscrew that first if yours does as well. Then tighten the nut on the outside as much as you can, let it sit for a few in the sun and maybe run some water over it, then you'll be and to get another quarter to half turn. Had a small dripping leak at first but that last quarter or so turn of the nut resolved it completely. Thanks again!

[@danielletracyann]

[@thecrams93]

@@MortenWork I can see you're getting this question constantly, and unfortunately I've got the same issue as most people. Wondering if they've changed the design of the part. Looks like the 26004 and 26005 parts include outlet fittings with a smooth clamp-on spout, rather than the threaded piece that you secure the nut and the valve to. Definitely looks like a lot of folks would appreciate a hyperlink if possible.

[@MortenWork]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gouZlWBjfpWAl6c You can see my Video Intex Pool shimmer in the link. When I vacuum my pool, I mount my suction hose on the same adapter that my skimmer uses. It is the blue adapter that you can see approx. 1.25 seconds inside the video. Remove the hose to the skimmer and mount your hose to your bottom vacuum cleaner instead.

[@etechm87]

Hi can I make the hole with water on the pool? Of course lower that the hole

[@MortenWork]

Yes you can. It is actually best to make the hole when there is water in the pool as the liner is tight. Adjust the water level below where the hole is to be made.

[@reneecarrasco5711]

Are the incoming valve suppose to be 32mm and the out valve 38mm or am I reading it wrong

[@MortenWork]

The film shows how to upgrade from 32 mm to 38 mm. This is done if you wish and access the Intex 38 mm program with larger hoses and larger sand filter pump.

[@orlandoanariba2836]

Did you use the inlet nozzle (valve with air black cap from start of video) as one of the outlet nozzles? I'm thinking about doing the second outlet using the inlet nozzle with the black cap on and wondering if you had any issues with air getting in the line?

[@MortenWork]

No I use the black hood on the inlet. The black hood is to be able to supply oxygen to your pool. Examples you see in the video are the exit valve (Where the skimmer is mounted)

[@stephennegrotti3448]

Do you know the size of the inlet? I have a bestway sandfilter and I was wondering if this would work with it. I believe my connection hose is 2 1/4 inches.
