Van Enterprises PVC Garden Hose Adapter (Male 1.5" NPT x 3/4" GHT) for Sump Pump and Pool Pump Hose Adapter

I used this to connect large solar connectors to my pool using a 3 way adaptor. I have an intex sand filter pump.In addition to this item, here are the parts I used:3 way valve:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00INKSBMS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1Extra hose:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004QY4CIW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Converter for hoses:https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004TYBCEG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1I now can divert all or part of my water through the heating panel while the pump is running. everything is converted to garden hose for the solar while staying large 2" for the pool skimmer and outlet. I get 1 degree rise in temp an hour in my 10 gallon pool with two 2x8 black panels. couldn't be happier as we were swimming in may.

This product was good except that the the threads were just a little bit finer than the standard pipe threads I found on other fittings at the plumber store. Not sure why there are so many different variations and not just one standard. I could make it work but it didn’t thread properly because the thread pitch was little bit off.

I bought a heavy duty sump pump from Home Depot without noticing it's not compatible with garden hose. Ironically Home Depot doesn't carry any right size converter. Found this on Amazon with free one day shipping, solved the problem fast enough. It fits perfectly and works great.

Fits my Pentair pool jet outlets in pool

Fits my pool filter housing drain port, connect to hose, use pool pump to drain the pool for winter!!
