Hey everyone, Hope I'm posting this in the right place. The bulkhead I'm using for my overflow is 1" slip to thread on the bottom.
I need 90 degrees right out of the threaded bulkhead connecting to a flex hose 1.25 ID. What is everyone using to connect. Cani get what I need at the hardware store.
 
Do a 1” to 1.25” street elbow. Lowe’s should have that. The 1” will slip right into your bulkhead (that’s why it’s called a street elbow) and the other side will be 1.25 slip for your flex.
 
If they don’t. They will 100% have a 1” street elbow you will glue right into your bulkhead, then you can get a 1.25 to 1” reducer . Glue that right into the 1” street elbow then glue the 1.25 spa flex into that and bingo. 100% you can get this one at Lowe’s. Done it many times myself.
 
When threading male part of elbow on bulkhead, tyflon tape or paste to seal threads
