Hello. Can this pump (or the 75 GPM version) be used on an existing in-ground pool with 1.5" return lines and 2" suction lines? I did read in the manual 2" lines were a minimum requirement but wasn't sure if that was for optimal flow vs. potential damage to lines. Looking to replace a 1.5 HP single speed pump providing water to waterfall with 2 outputs and 4 separate laminars all at same time. Thanks.

Dave- The Hayward TriStar Waterfall pumps; 120GPM SP36120EE and 75GPM SP36075EE, need a minimum of 2" plumbing, as outlined in the owner's manual. Reducing the size of your plumbing will cause back pressure that will be harmful to the pump.

Will a Hayward sp36120 ee tristar 120 gpm pump replace a speck 21-80, 30g water feature pump? It supplies the disappearing edge feature on an infinity pool with a sharp edge.

The difference is going to be the plumbing size.
