    Deck jet plumbing help

    Beautiful pool and jets. Thank you for pictures and explanation. If I understand correctly after the filter you have a 3 way valve and actuator with a 2" pipe that goes to an irrigation box that you then did a manifold and split into 4 individual 1" pipes with a ball valve to adjust each jet...

    2 45's or one sweep 90?

    Thank you!! for all the info. I had a thought... if 45s are the ones most common with a leak could it be that pool plumbers use more of those and not so many 90s or sweep 90s? I know a single 45 has better flow on their own... are 45s on their own still prone to leaks because they have more...

    2 45's or one sweep 90?

    Thank to both of you. I should stick to wanting sweep 90s it sounds like. Are you saying on the PVC SCH 40 it should say on the pipe SCH 40 and some will have SCH 40 and DWV?

    Staggering/Stacking Gunite Spa Jets?

    Plumbing Run Distance too much for spa?

    The builder said they did sweep 90s which I was looking for but on estimate they noted 2- 45s to make sweep 90s. I should express I want the true sweep 90s then and only use a 45s only when it is the best fitting at that place. Or 45s tend to leak more than other fittings..? It seems that two...

    Plumbing Run Distance too much for spa?

    @JamesW, Thank you for all the explanation you gave. Very helpful!! My equipment is also about 80-90 feet away from spa. I want to put way more jets in there. like maybe two seats of three jets on the back and a calf and maybe feet. Then the rest of the spa can also have single jets so when we...

    2 45's or one sweep 90?

    The builder told me they did sweep 90s but in fine print in my estimate it said, two 45s to make a sweep 90... Should I tell them I only want true sweep 90s unless a 45 is the only option for a certain turn. It seems putting two 45s has more chance of leaking than one fitting.

    Ideas to insulate auto cover over spa

    Thanks If you were building again would you do it the same way or do a raised spa instead? Do you have an automated cover on your pool?

    Preferred Hydrotherapy jets for new pool / spa build?

    How do you like your JetArrays? Do you feel it is close to a therapeutic feel like a hot tub? Are you happy? Would you do something different?

    Ideas to insulate auto cover over spa

    Is your spa connected almost flush with your pool with an automatic cover? If so, do you have problems of having pool water going inside of the spa when people are in the pool? Like does the pool water mix with spa? Wondering if it is harder to warm spa when it is almost flush with pool?
