Product details
This is the CMP 21005-000-000, a 2" PVC 90 degree sweep ell with a socket on each end for solvent welded pipe.
Why a sweep
A sweep turns the water through a longer radius than a standard tight elbow. Water does not like abrupt corners, and every tight 90 in a run costs the pump a little more work to push the same flow. On a pool where the equipment pad sits some distance from the pool, or where the plumbing already has several turns in it, using sweeps instead of tight elbows is a straightforward way to hold flow up.
Fitting it
Both ends are slip sockets, so the joint is cleaned, primed and cemented in the normal way. Dry fit the whole run before any glue comes out. A sweep occupies noticeably more space than a tight elbow, and it is easier to find that out with the pipe loose than after the cement has grabbed.
