Pool Filter Waste Port 1.5" to 1.25" Hose Adapter

cults3d

I drew up a makeshift adapter to fit a 1¼" pool hose onto a 1½" connector on a pool filter's waste port. This quick fix isn't designed for high pressure, so while you can use it on the intake side of a pool pump, I wouldn't recommend using it on the high-pressure output side. For the waste side, though, this adapter works just fine and gets the job done. Plus, it's a fast solution to a problem when you need something in the middle of the night on a weekend in a remote area. UPDATE 7-4-18 My first version developed pinhole leaks due to not using enough walls and too little infill, so since I had to reprint it anyway, I modified the design. I got rid of the taper fit on the output side and made it a straight fit where you can clamp the hose. The file for this is no_taper.
