What are the red pieces for in the picture? I don't have them on my unit now.

Hi John, The red pieces are compression clamps the is used to keep the Quick Connect (P133) from moving once it slides over the hose.

I had a polaris hose come off while the unit was running. I'm guessing I need to replace the two hoses and ends. My manual says "The Softube Quick Connect is designed to work with Polaris reinforced hose part #P19 or P18 only." Your part is listed as P17, will this work with what I have? What is required/recommended on the threads on each end? Do you sell the 90 degree pvc end in the picture?
Thanks Michael
Hello Michael. The Installation Kit,pump-qk.conn. (p17) contains the necessary parts to complete the hose and 2 quick connect fittings replacement. The quick connect fittings will thread directly into the Booster Pump wet end and the 45 degree PVC elbow. The 45 degree PVC elbow has a thread adapter glued to the inside that accommodates the quick connect threads. The 45 degree PVC elbow and thread adapter are available from local home improvement centers, plumbing section, schedule 40 PVC if they require replacement. Zodiac parts P18 and P19 are hose only. This repair requires the quick connect fitting(s).

The flexible hose on my booster pump has failed and this looks to be it's replacement. However, I have a newer model (2011-present) of the pump and the replacement suggested is "Quick Connect Install Kit - R0617100". Which do you recommend replacing with?
Hi Anthony, yes you can use this Polaris installation kit for your booster pump application.
