Definitely! My understanding is everything I did has been pretty well established pool maintenance for decades now. I'm sure there are loads of good books on the topic, though I'm a good 45min from the nearest library so it wouldn't have been my first choice.

Still can (libraries still exist plus the internet) but finding the online resources gets more and more difficult; the fact the author mentioned youtube videos instead of someone's old-internet style "all about pvc pipes" website [0] or comic sans plumber sites [1] is already telling.

What do you think it's telling of?

I'm not sure if the sites you linked would have been immediately very helpful in my specific case. You know this is for a pool, right?

The first is called "Everyday Uses for PVC Water Pipe" and has some cool ideas like using PVC for Wiimote holders or tridents, but I don't think that's super relevant for this project.

The second is a great forum which I'm already familiar with, but again, the topic is household plumbing and from a brief skim, none of the topics mention pools. I think mine would have been out of place.

I appreciate you trying to help!
