I’m replacing my old concrete equipment pad and getting new filter. All my plumbing is currently 1.5″, should I increase all the plumbing on the pad to 2″ for better flow?

There are a lot of variables that go into the pool filtration system and plumbing size. Not knowing your particulars the best advice is replace like with like, so if it was/is 1.5″ stick with that unless you run through all the new flow rates calculations and come to a different conclusion.
