The begining of the intake....Piping is 1 inch...The "T" pipe was to be used to suck up any floating debris....It was removed because it took too much swim space...

I have two AC101's doing mechanical filtration, so the "T" is not really needed...

I used a table saw to cut out 45 degree angled holes along the intake...

Gotta love homedepot.

Home Depot and Ace Hardware.....A big thumbsup goes out to the helpful and hard working employees of each store...PVC materials pictured cost just under $15, minus the power tools of course...
