Installation Notes
Turn off pump and relieve system pressure. Cut the existing pipe flush or remove the previous fitting. Clean hose pipe, deburr, dry and apply PVC primer/solvent cement. Insert the SP1022S fitting full-depth and hold until bond sets. Install the eyeball or accessory into the front threads, check alignment and system operation, then restore filtration circulation and verify no leaks.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the return fitting each season for cracking, discoloration, looseness or seepage around the seams. Replace immediately if any of these conditions appear to maintain system integrity and avoid structural or hydraulic issues.
