Hope this helps, please let us know how the tests went. If you don't have an extra 5 ft of hose try cutting 4ft off your 10ft suction line and install after the jet and put 6ft in front of the jet. To solve the problem with loosing prime you can put 5ft of 2" hose between the jet and sluice and keep the jet below the waterline. (You can hold your hand over the jet outlet to reprime when lost, but it's a pain when loosing prime often in shallows). If suction is good, then the location of the jet is the problem and your simply loosing prime on the jet and not getting it back due to the height of the jet above the waterline. While feeling suction strength and looking at outflow, lift the end of the jet out of the water and see if it holds good suction at a height similar to the sluice height above the waterline.ĥ. Connect suction hose and feel the end of the hose, it should still be strong, but not quite as strong as without the suction hose.Ĥ. If jet pressure looks ok then hold the jet under water and feel the suction strength. This will help verify the jet orifice is under pressure.ģ. fire up the pump and aim the jet away from you and you should be able to have a jet spay go 40ft or so through the air. disconnect the jet from the sluice and suction hose.Ģ. I recommend the following steps to test the setup.ġ. Millz it looks like your working in a deep enough pool that with a few minor changes it should work well but let's verify a few things to find out if there are any issues with the jet or pump.
