Hi everyone, we are almost done with our pool and our plumber can’t help us due to a family emergency. We have 4 pipes (vacuum, main drain, suction, skimmer)that need to go into the pump(1.5vs pentair) and can’t figure out how to plumb it and where valves should go. Can anyone help?
And we have a pentair tr60 sand filter.

Hi, welcome to TFP! We are going to need more information before we can offer advice. Do you have a list of features that are being installed on your pool? I can see you have two pumps, so we would need to know what each pump is intended for. If you have a copy of your pool plans there should be some sort of schematic for the plumbing. If you could post a photo of that we can help you sort it out.

The second pumps is for 2 jets and 3 gushers. I know what to do with that. So the main bs pump will run the 4 lines I’m asking about. Plumbing was done differently than plans schematic. There is no spa, no heater.

Do you have a seperate line for a vacuum or do you intend to vacuum through the skimmer? Usually if you are going to have an automatic pool cleaner you would have a dedicated line for it. It can be a suction line or a pressure line. I'm going to ask an expert if they can help you sort this out.

This drawing is how the plumbing is now.
