Upgrade Intex Pool Pump & Valves | 1.25 to 1.5 Conversion | Krystal Clear 2500 gph

Before I could upgrade my Intex pool pump I had to convert the inlet and outlet valves from 1.25 to 1.5 inch to fit the larger hoses that the Krystal Clear 2500 gph pump requires. If you have a Bestway, Coleman, Summer Waves or Intex above ground pool similar to mine you can follow these steps to upgrade your pump and valves.
Keep in mind, you have to cut the pool liner to upgrade the inlet valve. Doing this will likely void any warranty/return policy you might have on your pool. Do this at your own risk.
