  1. Need pvc suggestions!

    I would like to remove a pvc reducer fitting from an existing cemented pumbing setup (actually a skimmer). Has anyone tried, or does anyone know if this can be done? If so, any thoughts on how to do this. It is a 2"-1 1/2" reducer. The main reason for this is that I have an unused 2" ball...
