Help! With Neptune Systems Cor-15

[Areeflover]

I need help I cant figure out how to connect my Neptune cor-15 to my 1" plumbing this is ridiculous

 

[Nubbie]

cor-15 output is 3/4"

 

[Areeflover]

I appreciate the feed back but that doesn't help my situation

hard plumbed or soft tubing?

you could use something like a "Schedule 80 Reducing Bushing 1” Spigot x 3⁄4” Slip" to reduce your 1 inch pipe in to the 3/4 inch output size of the cor 15. you will still need a short piece of 3/4 inch pipe for the pumps output.

 

[Ebslinger]

Is this related to the fact that a cor 15 has a 3/4 output, but Neptune doesn't offer a 3/4 inch flow sensor by chance?

This has been my #1 pet peeve with Neptune.

To go 1", probably the easiest way would be to use the included 1.25" union and reduce. If you don't use the union, you'll have to go from 3/4" to 1". I'm also starting my my plumbing and using a COR.

Something like this:

I used a 1 1/4 schedule 80 reducer to 1 inch and utilized the 1 1/4" Slip to BSPP Union the pump came with. I used a slip spigot fitting on that to use tubing.

Soft into hard

 

[Areeflover]

So the tricky part with mine is it's an existing tank and I can't use the old return cause its a ticking time bomb so whatever I do I can't glue anything at least that touches water

 

[Areeflover]

This is my plumbing currently

 

[Ebslinger]

We're going to need a bigger boat...

Sorry to say, you will likely need to do a major re-plumb. If you do it in soft tubing, there won't be any glue to worry about, and the curves will be simple.

 

[Areeflover]

I don't mind doing it completely soft I just have no idea how to do that without glue

You dont happen to have a jebao pump do you. The one inch spigot adapter that came with my old jebao dc pump fit perfectly with the small collar the cor 15 came with. I used it that way until i ordered parts from brs

Actually yes I do that's what I was using

 

[11cmortarman]

Thats the jebao 1 inch spigot piece

 

[Ebslinger]

Ok, let me make sure I understand this. You have a new Cor-15 pump that you want to plumb into your system.

You have some existing plumping that is 1 inch.

Question: How does the existing plumbing feed back into the tank? Is that white pvc 40 feeding bulkheads?
