Hi all!

Please take a look at this video and let know if you can think of a way that I can avoid it. When I turn on my spa and air blower, water is spewed outside and makes a big mess. Is there any way to avoid it?

What I'm assuming is that the jets were placed a little too high when I built the pool and that's why it's happening.

 
You can try diverting some air from your air blower. Some people drill some holes in the pipe below the bpower until they get the right amount of air released. Or you can install a T fitting and then a valve and a muffler to exhaust some air.
 
Jorge, your blower is too powerful for your system - you need to divert some of the air going to the jets.
Cheapest way.....make cuts in the 2" pipe going to the jets until desired mixture of air and water is achieved.
Best way....Add a 3 way valve on the pipe below the blower. Add a section of 2" (about 2') and then put your cuts in that. This will make about the same noise as the original system AND now you have the functionality of adjusting the blower output without limiting the blower.
