Thanks! Turns out the answer is fuck no. Now I get to proceed to Home depot, do not pass go and do not collect $200.00 and pick up some sprinkler risers because apparently I don't have any extras of those either and I need to stop stepping on the sprinkler heads d'oh.

I also need to replace my DE filter's bump valve because it's old and dead. I really hoped I could delay that until spring.

Bump valve, now you're just making stuff up! :razz:. I spent the better part of the afternoon pressure washing an assortment of DE filters. Twinsies!

Boy o boy. A slide valve. Haven't seen one of them since aught 9! Just kidding. You should upgrade to a multiport. So nice.





Bout 3 more weeks and I can stop having pool dreams. Nightmares.
I was looking at those and wondering. It looks like it would require changing my plumbing a bit but I'm sick of this slide leaking and freezing up every year. Thanks Neo and enjoy your down time. When does your lovely wife leave for her vacation?

There would definitely be a bit of replumbing to do but they are so much more versatile. The wifey leaves Nov 4th. 11 days. The end is near. Then the 5th and 6th are school in-service days for kids and parent teacher conferences. So I'm gonna have to get with it right off the bat. And my mom leaves the 3rd to drive home to Florida. So I'm gonna go from a full house to lonely planet. It's all good. That's what I keep telling myself.

You will have more time to contemplate the next faze in your ascension to modship.
