Is it possible to hard plumb this?

I want to use hard plumbing but the outlet of this pump is just a plastic tube. No threads or barbed adapter. would it be possible?

Yes, the outlet is a 1" I.D. tubing, so with a short piece of 1" I.D. vinyl tubing you can go to a barb fitting to solid pipe. It is just a plumbing issue and I would recommend the vinyl tubing to help reduce vibration anyway.

You only use enough vinyl to connect the pump to the pvc, 4-6 inches is usually enough.

I thought you meant vinyl run the entire line
