Hey ladies and gents. This is my 2nd summer with my new pool, first one was setup and winterized by the pool builder. I would like to hear your opinions about how I should angle my return jet eyeballs in this pool. I don't have the exact number or returns, would have to go count them, probably 4. All the returns are on the far side of the pool closest to the equipment pad. But with this pool design and the two skimmers, shallow and deep ends, what would be a good way to point the eyeballs? Do I try to make a circular current? Do I split the directions and point directly to the closest skimmer? Other ideas?

rd,

In my mind no matter what the shape of the pool, the returns should all be pointed so that they "try" to make the water rotate like a giant flushing toilet bowl.. Obviously at a much, much slower rate..

I would at least start there and see how well it works before trying anything else.

Thanks,

Jim R.
