We had the same problems with the valves and since we put these on last year, no problems at all! They seem to be made a lot better than the crap you get with the pools. Good luck!

Yes you can. It comes with only one 1 1/4'' adaptor but you will need to order a second for your other end. I ordered mine from Intex it was 3.46+ shipping. It is called a 1 1/4'' adaptor plunger valve. Found under replacement parts, above ground pools, APG accessories, saltwater system parts.

In my opinion these T valves are not worth a nickle. I've installed four and three leaked. No matter what I've done the leaks could not be stopped. With the fourth I was just lucky. My leaks were at the connection between the toilet and the valve. It leaked to the floor not into the tank. In your case the ball within the valve must be defective.

My water depth is about 46 inchesI have some YouTube videos about this pool. Just search ken Doane intex pool. There are also other good videos on intex ultra frame pools on YouTube.

Wish I could help, but mine leaks also. It's as tight as it will go and still water dribbles out. I have to add water to the pool every week which is a pain since we're on a monitor and having a drought!

I removed the nuts from the adapters and put a 1 1/4 flexible coupling over that end. It's a tight fit but it will go on. And then you can place that over the end on your pool. Secure the hose clamps and you're in business. I don't have any leaks. I also purchased the intex skimmer plate so that I can vacuum the pool easier. I just use the top hat looking pieces that came with the pool to keep water from flowing out if I have to do anything with the sand filter. It beats paying through the nose for plunger valves

The hose I have (that comes with the skimmer) has a 1 and a half inch inside diameter and the hose fits snugly. I'm certain that you could not fit a l & 1/4 inch hose onto this fitting! If you have an Intex above ground pool, it is the exact same part as the one that came with the pool. I purchased another one so that I could put one on both the inlet and the outlet sides and then place plugs in them from the inside which allowed me to leave the pool full of water for winter. That way, I didn't have to drain any of the water from my pool before winterizing. All I did was remove the valves, hoses, and pump for the winter. I live in Utah where the pool freezes over.

That is the size pool I have, and I followed this link http://www.bluefade.com/intex-filter-pump-compatibility/ (which is a conversion chart for pool pumps) to see if it would work for mine. Get the model # from your current pump and check the conversion chart.

My pool people says with loud sound , it is on its last leg. Mine was also leaking water. I replaced rather then refurbished.i believe was right move. However if not leaking and working wait till it goes. Bought new pump online ,less money then local. Noise from housing motor !i believe he said.

I bought this same pool last summer and have 3 dogs that like to climb all over it while we are swimming. I have had no holes in my pool yet. I love mine! I recommend buying a different pump because the one that comes with it is real small. I bought the Intex sand filter. I put sand in it last year and it is still working great. With a cartridge filter you will be changing it every couple of weeks.

No it will not; i have a soft side intex pool; and it will not damage it at all. i have used it so much I love it.

I'm not sure about your specific pool, but I have an Intex 18' Easy Set pool, and I was able to cobble up something by taking a trip to the plumbing section of my local hardware store. Cost about $15 in fitting for me, but it works like a charm and since it is below the water, no one notices it. The fountain is great. Really adds a nice feature, for a low cost.

I have an Intex 20' round by 52" deep above ground pool and and the pump does not appear to be strong enough to make mine run either.

I need an answer to this very question as well. So far the answers seems to conflict each other. Anyone else have experience with using this on an intex metal frame pool?

I don't think so! The leaks may be coming from improper positioning. I haven't had a problem. Just make sure you have a good connection.

Yes, Juan, one of my mattresses is an Intex and one of the two valves worked on that one. My other mattress needed a different size and the other valve worked on that one! Good luck.

I have an Intex 18 x 10 oval pool and it works great. None of the adapters it came with worked with the pool, but I was able to use the adapter that came with the Intex Deluxe wall mount skimmer. However, the vacuum works best with 1500 gph pump and above. I'm now using 2500 sand and salt filter and works very good.
