I am building a pool with detached spa that will share equipment. Since this is a detached scenario a standard spillover into the pool is not possible so an underground 2” overflow line will serve this purpose. This 2” overflow line is fed by two 2x6 rectangular spa drains at the spa waterline. Each drain connects to a 2” vertical line that immediately drops about 6 in. or so into to a 2” manifold which then gradually slopes down, through a few turns and then outlets into the pool which is about 15ft away (Approximately 25 ft of pipe length total). The 2 in. outlet into the pool is currently 14 in. below the waterline. The pools water surface area is 1350 SqFt but 150 SqFt is a tanning shelf with only 8 in. of water depth. The spa water surface area is 43 SqFt. The waterline in the spa is 13.5 inches higher than that of the pool. I suspect the pool outlet is too deep so I am trying to get some guidance here before I am past the point of no return. I’m post shotcrete but my trenches are still open so correction will be a pain if necessary but possible. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I was originally planning dedicated spa equipment but due to inflation my budget is not going as far as it would have 2 years ago when I began planning this project.
