Pool Return Jets for Sale

A pool is able to stay clean in large part due to the water’s movement. Pool return jets specifically play a large role in keeping your pool water moving. Without pool circulation, the water would quickly become stagnant, lending itself susceptible to growing algae, collecting dirt, and becoming unsafe for swimming. The best pool return jets increase the efficiency and performance level of the state of the water, but also the health of the pool structure as well.

Pool return jets, sometimes referred to as eyeballs, are found on pool walls shooting powerful streams of water into the pool. For as much fun as they provide when feeling that burst of water hitting your body, return jets are functionionally very pivotal. In fact, they’re named return jets because of how the order of circulation works in a pool. The skimmers and main drains suck dirty water out of the pool, then carrying this water through the pool filter system, before being “returned” to the swimming pool via the jets. 

Most inground pools use 2 or 3 return jets at minimum depending on the size of the pool. They tend to be installed in the deep end, shallow end, and any other area of the pool that provides balanced circulation. Grouping the jets too close to one another will lead to inefficient water circulation, so be cognisant of their placement. Choose the correct size so your pool return jets are fitting correctly. You will find return jet sizes consisting of ⅜”, ½”, and ¾”. Due to the nature of water circulation, it is actually more beneficial to install different size jets around the pool. Jets should be angled down at 45 degrees to maximize efficiency. Circulating the flow effectively is crucial to keeping the water healthy. For above ground pools, jets should be aimed toward the opposite wall. The flow should hit the wall and split in two causing two halves of circular motion. To ensure you are getting the best performance from your pool jets, maintenance is necessary. Otherwise, natural wear and tear and common deficiencies will result in a need for pool return jets replacement parts.
