I recently installed a new pump and filter. The tools and materials that I needed were: 1. Screwdriver for connecting the electrical wires to the pump. 2. An 8 foot piece of PVC pipe from Home Depot. 3. An assortment of PVC elbows and adaptor fittings for the pipes (also from Home Depot) 4. PVC primer and glue (yes, from Home Depot) 5. A hacksaw to cut the pipe into desired lengths. 6. A file to debur the cut face of the pipe. 7. A tape measure. 8. A spirit level to help in the measurements. 9. Thread sealant Teflon tape. (Be generous with this stuff or you'll end up like me needing silicone caulk after the job is done and you find leaks!)
ANSWER::
Channel locks large enough to fit the fittings and or pipe and a knife and rags also come to mind.

not for your own property.
Have you considered measuring exactly where it is to go then manufacture it from fibre glass outside the pool install the plumbing into it and drop it into place. that way you can easily remove when you wish and make repairs when needed.
Do a Google search under swimming pool plumbing designs, or swimming pool plumbing (or pipe) layouts, or schematics... somewhere in the top ten will be a beautiful picture of what you want.
To replace the intake valve for an above-ground pool, first, ensure the pool is drained and the pump is turned off. Disconnect the existing valve by unscrewing it from the plumbing, and remove any old sealant or debris. Install the new valve, applying plumber's tape or sealant on the threads, and secure it in place. Finally, reconnect the plumbing, refill the pool, and test for leaks.
A pool pipe diagram is a visual representation of a pool's plumbing system, showing the layout and connections of pipes, valves, and other components. It helps in understanding how water flows through the system, identifying potential issues, and planning maintenance or repairs. By providing a clear overview of the plumbing layout, a pool pipe diagram allows for easier troubleshooting and maintenance of the pool's plumbing system.
You need the proper tools and the qualifications to do this job. Call a qualified swimming pool electrician or pool tech to do the job to code and install a GFCI. k
This question makes no sence!!! If you have groundwater and want to build an inground pool you need to install a "well point". a Well point is a plumbing line which runs underground and pumps out "ground water" under the pool. Once the pool is filled you do not need to worry about the ground water as much. the water in the pool pushes OUT as ground water pushes in.
A pool plumbing diagram with a heater typically includes pipes that connect the pool to the heater, a pump to circulate water, a filter to clean the water, and valves to control the flow of water. The heater is usually placed after the filter and before the return to the pool.
An inground pool plumbing diagram typically includes the layout of pipes, valves, filters, pumps, and other equipment used to circulate water in the pool. It shows how water flows through the system to keep the pool clean and properly maintained.
The best thing to do is to take a sample of water to your pool shop and get it tested they will be able to advise you on exactly what is required in your particular situation. The balancing of your pool requires the correct testing equipment and if you would rather do all of this yourself these tools can also be supplied by the pool shop.
Not enough room in this format to elaborate. Go to a pool store for that info.
Bubbles in your pool can be caused by air getting trapped in the water circulation system, leaks in the pool liner or plumbing, or improper water chemistry.
