Return Extensions? Improve Flow?

[lardo5150]

I feel like I have never really had optimal water flow to the skimmers, with the way my pool is setup.
In the pic below, the two black spots are the skimmers, the red spots are the returns.
I feel like on the left side, I need the jet to point more towards the side.
I was looking for some type of "extension" to the return there, where I can have it stick out just a bit more so I can get the flow going a bit more down the side.
I saw something like this on Amazon, but the reviews were not good.



Anyone have any ideas or what I could swap out to make it better?

I think you are stuck with the flow design of your skimmer and return placement.

In 2018 I gave you the diagram below showing how I think your water flows and that your skimmers mostly get flow back in from the nearest return and the middle of the pool where the red circles are is a stagnant area that gets little water movement.

Lardo,

You have two skimmers and five returns, you should not have any issues with skimming.

What speed do you normally run your IntelliFlo?

How long do you run your pump each day?

Does your waterfall wall run continuously or just when you want to show off for your friends?

Do your skimmers have working weir doors?

Do your return eyeballs all generally point in the same direction? With the idea of them moving the pool water in a circle like a giant flushing toilet bowl?

Thanks,

Jim R.

HA I completely forgot I posted it back then.

The red circle is a return also, any suggestion for directing that?

What specific problems are you observing that you want to fix?

Toss some ping pong balls in the pool and watch where they end up.
