Second eyeball for flow?

[Northrider]

Thinking of adding (1 already in) another eyeball just to increase the flow. Any reason I should not do this? Thinking it would help increase the whirl pool effect making cleaning a bit easier and mostly..we like the lazy river, floating in circles on the pool floats! Ideas??

You won't end up increasing the "flow", but you will end up with better circulation to help avoid any dead spots. May I ask what size your AGP is dimensionally and the wall height?

Rider,

Sounds like a good plan to me.. You will find that adding another identical eyeball will drop the output of each one by about 50%.. I would think about adding a second return line plus making each return eyeball one size smaller.

Thanks,
