Return Fitting Installation and Plumbing

[@charlessherrow1131]

How do you remove the eyeball? It looks like you just pop it out.

Anthony and Sylvan installed a gunite pool for us. We thought it was beautiful, until we noticed all 3 returns are not covered. In fact, they left them fully exposed with jagged edges. It turns out, all 3 returns were installed at a 45 degree angle and no threaded pipes were installed for the return covers. When we pushed on this, they told us there is nothing they can do and we should just leave them exposed. We obviously can't do this because there isn't a way to close them during winterization (and they look ugly and unsafe). Can you please offer advice or suggestions as to how to fix this problem? Thanks.

What brand is this return and how do you remove the eyeball? I'm used to Hayward and my new pool is very different.

What make is that fitting? where do they come from?

Did you ever find out who makes these fittings?

My pool is old and does not have those return jets, just some old 1” pipe with no thread
