By doing this your pump will be allowed to push more water through your hoses and out the pools return boosting the water circulation.
Above ground pool water circulation direction.
A pool typically has two to three return jets where the water that filters through the circulation system returns to the pool.
This video is an overview of the filtration system and clearly shows the circulation of water through the filtration cycle.
To give your swimming pool the best filtration you should point your return jet away from your skimmer and downward to get the best circulation and filtration.
For optimal circulation angle your return jets downward to either the left or right but all in the same direction.
The feeder should have a metering valve that adjusts the rate sanitizer is added to the pool.
Before you can have any circulation you first must have a pool pump.
If a pool only has one or two returns the returns can also be pointed downward to increase circulation.
I am the owner of an above ground 24 foot swimming pool and a 140.
Which direction should i point my swimming pool jets.
On older pools return jets might have been built on one side or end of the pool with the skimmer opposite the return jets.
Your pool may have an automatic chlorinator brominator attached to the circulation system.
If you point it towards the skimmer you re just filtering the already filtered water.
For instance pointing all the returns in a clockwise direction helps the water circulate clockwise.
Point it away from the skimmer so the clean water circulates out into the pool.
Conventional wisdom dictates that most pool owners should point the jets up to create vigorous ripples in the water.
Water is pulled from the pool via one or more skimmers and sometimes one or more main drains by an electric pump.
Pool water is directed through the feeder where sanitizer is eroded into the pool water and sent back to the pool.
Above ground or inground temporary or permanent simple or fancy all pools have a circulation system and they are all remarkably similar.
In fact the angle of your return jets can make a major difference in the efficiency of your pool water circulation.
Think of the recycling symbol or a whirlpool.
It is best to direct the water in a consistent direction to spin the water around the pool.
