I bought this pump to replace one that had threads to attach a garden hose. W/ yours, do I use tubing to push onto the adaptor? Will I need adhesive?

I just have hose clamps holding mine. But then mine is easily accessible should the attachment fail. With that in mind if you use adhesive then to fix a break or hose tear you would have to get a new fixture. I would suggest using the hose clamps first.

Flexible tubing and a clamp will work well. You can also build up an adapter from the pump to garden hose with parts from a hardware store.

There are threaded adapters in the box with this product. You can probably hook up a hose directly, but if you need another adapter it will be a standard one available at your hardware store.

That is correct, there is an adapter in the head of the pump hose, all you need to do is unscrew the ring and flip over the adapter then replace the ring securely

I had to attach mine to a threaded coupling but I would bet just the hose and a clamp would work.

You can most likely attach it to your pump. The outside diameter of the hose may be different, but the inside should be the same.

Nope. different hose adapter. look for the quick release type. Not the screw on.

I used all plastic PVC fittings to the pump proper. Had no problem getting a good seal using just Teflon tape on the plastic threads

I use a Melnor brass quick connector set. Once installed, all I do is snap the garden hose on and off and don't touch the plastic garden hose adapter. This solution has worked great for me. Here's a link to the Melnor product on Amazon: Melnor 2-Piece Metal Starter Set

The check valve can screw directly into the pump just make sure you bring the garden hose adapter supplied with pump with you to lowes or Home Depot so you get the right size threading and diameter check valve. then connect the garden hose onto the adapter (provided with pump) and screw onto check valve.

No it hooks up to your existing pump. it was pretty easy to hook up but you will probably need to get extra hoses.

Remember to hook the main ground wire between pump and heater .No. Just make sure it's plugged into a GFI receptacle. You also should know how to cut and glue PVC pipe. If your pump is plugged in the same receptacle it should be a GFI and be just fine. The flow of the water through the heater turns it on and off. Plus you must have enough water in the tub also. I hope this helps.

I actually had to use epoxy to attach the hose to the pump. And that was a smaller hose than is attached to the filter. I used an adapter to make them fit together.

You need a 3/4 connection to hook it to this pump. Or the hose has to be 3/4inch. There are different sizes on hoses so you need to check or ask for some help at the store.

It's a standard hose thread, I've used it on a number of different attachments and connectors. I don't know that one specifically, but if it's standard hose thread, you're fine.

I hooked mine up to a normal garden hose. I think you can buy Dramm hoses as well per your requirements.

I soaked the end of the tubing in boiling water for a few seconds then guickly pushed it onto the barbed pump fitting and it went on easily and has not given me any trouble since. You may have to cut it off of the fitting if you ever want to remove it. I can be cleaned by simply wipeing it with a clean cloth.

You can use the sleeve adapter the connect it with the OEM hose attached to canister. Connecting the canister requires a clip lock on the hose which this doesn't have.
