May I please get advise on the PB’s 4 Return Positioning for a 15 x 30 Rectangular Gunite Pool. Picture is Attached.

U,

The basic idea is that you want the water in the pool to circle like a flushing toilet bowl.. Obviously at a much, much slower rate. Over time this drags the floating debris in front of a skimmer.

I'd want two skimmers. Both of them individually run back to the equipment pad. Main drain connected to the equipment pad and not to either skimmer.

Thanks,

Jim R.

Return line located on the spa B/B may not be needed with the 2 spillways from the spa and the return line on the sun shelf and may be more beneficial located on the south wall (bottom of the drawing).
