Installation

Adding water jets to an existing pool is a feasible project, but it requires professional help. Here's an overview of the process:

1. Assessment: A professional evaluates your current setup and makes recommendations on jet placement.

2. Design Planning: We develop a customized plan to implement the jets into your pool.

3. Installation: This involves plumbing and electrical work to support the new features.

4. Testing: Post-installation, the system is tested to ensure everything functions correctly.

   
   

The entire process typically spans a few days to a week, depending on the complexity and contractor availability. While there may be minor disruptions during installation, the end result is a revitalized pool experience.

Choosing the Right Water Jets

What jets do you choose? We can help you at Hopkins Custom Pools, but here are some of the types we like to recommend:

• Laminar Jets: These create smooth, arching streams of water, adding a touch of elegance.

• Bubblers: Ideal for shallow areas, bubblers produce playful bubbling effects.

• Deck Jets: Installed on the pool deck, they project streams of water into the pool.

Before Installation

Before taking the plunge, let's think about:

• Pump Capacity: Ensure your existing pool pump can handle the additional load; some features may require a dedicated pump.

• Plumbing and Electrical Requirements: Installing jets involves adding new plumbing lines and electrical connections.

• Budget: Costs can vary based on the type and number of jets, as well as the complexity of installation.
