26005E Above Ground Swimming Pool Inlet Air Water Jet Part Kit with Plunger Valve, Strainer Connector, Jet Nozzle, Strainer Grid & More

Likes: Products we’re more than what I needed in the box. It’s actually a kit, 2 through the wall inlet pieces, 2 strainer covers for the Inlet pieces, 1 plunger valve ( w/ vertical air bleeder & plastic shut off bleeder cap). There is only ONE knob twisting through the wall plunger valve in the box set, not 2. This is the return like ( filter to pool.) Dislikes: The item(s) pictured in the advertisement for sale are NOT what comes in the box. I was seeking 2 plunger valves ( the knob type shut off) as I saw pictured. Positives: Good quality, 1.5” hoses attach w/ clamps ( I don’t use the threaded Intex hoses that screw on.) I contacted the seller, and despite an obvious language barrier, they agreed to ship me a second plunger w/o the air valve. Negatives: The second kit that arrived ( w/o air release valve) was merely a duplicate of the first kit, which had the air valve. Despite numerous e-mail exchanges back and forth, and a $90 investment for one kit, I got 2 kits and not exactly what I needed. I even gave them Intex part numbers which I looked up myself and they still sent me the wrong stuff. Overall: I can make the kits work for my custom set up, they did make good on sending me extras at no charge and no shipping, arrived quickly, and all pieces function as they should. I feel the language barrier was the main cause of not getting exactly what I was seeking so I’m pleased. The parts are genuine Intex, not knock-offs, and if you need a kit for your pool to replace 2 inlets and 1 return w/ one plunger valve on the return side only, this is the right kit for you.

Product was perfect. Fit just right and stopped my leak that I had.

I ordered two plunger valves with gaskets and nuts, as described and shown in the photo. What arrived was 1 plunger valve with gasket and nuts, the outtake one. The intake valve setup was NOT included. After checking the box item number (#26005E) and photo on their box, I can see that what was shown on the box WAS in the box. The problem is that what they are advertising on amazon is NOT the actual product. So beware, if you return this item, you will receive the same back. Try typing in 'Intex #26005E' and you should see what you'll actually receive.

This bundle includes everything to replace your Intex pool inlet air control valve. It is exactly what you would get with an Intex pool. Everything fit perfectly.

This an update to a previous review. What is listed and photo of item is not what I received. I only got about half of the items. I contacted the company that sells this and told them I didn’t receive what was pictured or described. They said the item was listed incorrectly and offered me half refund of what I paid. I am very appreciative of a company that admits and try’s to fix mistakes.

Great replacement for intex! The parts are exactly the same as my original. Everything seems to be working properly.

Ok, all you folks trying to find an Intex threaded strainer attachment for your stock tank pool and, like me, can’t find one anywhere this summer on this planet, this is the solution that the numb nuts at Intex or at Amazon either don’t know about or won’t share on the inter webs: You can convert an inlet jet nozzle attachment into a strainer attachment with what you see in this kit! And it’s really simple. If you got a threaded inlet jet nozzle connector with your pump, you will have to purchase an additional one. Just like the one in this kit. What you have to do is first, take the adjustable pool inlet nozzle off. You’ll see a dark gray (or white) tapered insert inside. Flip the entire attachment upside down so that the threaded nut end is facing up. Set a couple of wooden blocks underneath the threaded end for the jet nozzle cap so that you can tap the tapered insert out with a 1 1/2” dowel and hammer. A couple of light taps on the dowel with a hammer will pop that sleeve out. Now you can use one of the the strainer caps that comes with the two tapered stems (that are completely useless with trying to equip a stock pool). Unscrew the strainer cap that fits the tapered stem and screw that on to the smaller threaded shoulder on the head. Wahlah!

Easy pesy! Came with the exact parts pictured. I needed the valve and strainer to replace my old one on Coleman pool so I could hook up the Intex pool cleaner I purchased from Amazon as well and it worked perfectly! They both are running great together! I don’t know what the hell the rest of these reviewers were expecting to get. It came with the parts pictured. It doesn’t say it comes with the black rings nor the tubings. It’s exactly as described and just what I needed. The last picture is with the intex pool cleaner adapter attached. Perfect!

Matériel acquis pour modifier une piscine 4,00x2,00 bestway (hors sol) équipée en 32mm d'origine et d'une pompe intex 2,7m3/h. Objectif : limiter les efforts mécaniques engendrés par l'arrivée et la sortie d'eau "droite" (pourtant soulagé, après bricolage par des câbles reliés à la structure métallique de la piscine) et surtout faciliter l'utilisation d'une pompe plus puissance nécessairement en 38mm. Le kit comprend les 2 vannes d'arrêt et 2 buses en 38mm A la réception de la nouvelle pompe de 7,2m3/h (tuyaux de 38mm) j'ai effectué les 2 montages possibles: - non destructif pour le liner : il nécessite en plus des adaptateurs 32/38 intex type A (13€). Sur la sortie 32mm native de la piscine, on vient placer les adaptateurs type A puis on vient visser les vannes d'arrêt. Facile à mettre en ouvre, sans découpe du limer. Les tuyaux ne sortent donc plus à l'horizontale : une bonne chose pour préserver son liner. Autre avantage, la vanne est en plastique dur. C'est nettement plus résistant que le plastique des tuyaux de 32mm. Parfait pour y accrocher des câbles de soutient. - destructif pour le liner : il nécessite de découper au cutter (fin) le limer autour des sorties et arrivées d'eau. Passé l'appréhension, à l'abri du regard inquiet des enfants, la découpe se fait sans soucis en prenant le joint des buses 38mm comme gabarit (nombreux tutos en vidéo). Puis montage des 2 buses en 38mm, puis des vannes. C'est nettement plus massif et d'aspect sécurisant ! Franchement parfait ! Les vannes d'arrêt sont un vrai plus : fonctionnement sans fuite, sans efforts et donc sécurisant. Les nouvelles buses en 38mm épousent mieux le liner et engendre nettement moins de déformation de celui ci. Cette fois même les enfants sont partant pour gérer l'entretien du filtre (cartouche) ! A noter que la buse d'aspiration dispose des 2 filetages (coté bassin) : l'un d'un grand diamètre et un plus petit correspondant au diamètre des buses d'origine en 32mm. Cela permet donc d'y adapter tous les accessoires précédemment acquis en 32mm (skimmer, balais aspirant &co) A final : très satisfait d'avoir pris ce kit : vannes d'arrêt + buse en 38mm. Gain en confort d'utilisation, en garanti de longévité pour l'intégrité du liner (malgré la découpe) ... mais cela nécessite de disposer d'une pompe et de tuyaux en 38mm !

Ho acquistato e installato subito queste valvole al posto di quelle in dotazione con la piscina! Ottime, permettono di eseguire la giusta manutenzione alla pompa e al filtro senza perdere troppa acqua all' interno della piscina e soprattutto senza perdite di tempo. (Un pochino costise durante il periodo estivo) Se acquistate in inverno costano 1/3 e sono le stesse 😉.

So I bought these connections after buying a pool vac that works from the outlet. Our Aldi Summer Waves 14ft pool had different, very basic connections and a 1000l per hour filter pump (so I bought a new one of those too) so neither were compatible with the new pool vac. I watched a YouTube video on how to install these as it meant emptying some water out (half the pool as it happens to get below the inlet connection), cutting the inlet and outlet holes in my pool to make them much bigger to fit the new system. Armed with a sharpie and the Oring from the connection, I marked the inner circle of the Oring evenly over the existing outlet hole and then put a new blade in the Stanley knife and cut along the circle line. Had to try it and then keep trimming until the connection went thru, because I had cut more on the inside than outside of my sharpie line as initially I was scared I would make it too big so went steady. I didn’t use Vaseline on the threads, as I saw in another video (after I had done it) but it went through and pushed it flush and tightened the connector on the outside and added the valve and repeat for the inlet hole. All refilled to discover there was a little drip running down the bottom on the outside of the outlet connection, but we tightened up the outer screw ring as much as we could and hope it has stopped it. (fingers crossed). Should be much easier cleaning filters and winterising the pool now with the valves being able to be closed off and no bungs to try to fit into tight holes. Also the connections on the inside are now compatible with the pool vac, and other intex devices too I expect. Hopefully all will be good as we start to use the pool as it gets warmer.

Bought solely for the two valves, which works really well. Good to know is that the famale ends on these are oval, so think carefully regarding how to place and use! (Unless you use the full set as intended! ;) )

Tenia un sistema un poco raro y no encontraba algo que me sirviese de verdad. Me frenaba bastabte tener que recortar la lona, pero me decidi y solo me arrepieto de no haberlo hecho antes. Funciona de maravilla y ni una gota de perdida. La bomba trabaja mas relajada al tener mas diametro de trabajo y el oxigenador le aporta un plus. Un acierto.
