Swimming Pool Exercise Swim Jet

Product Information

The jets will do a lot of the circulation work, but you have to make sure other areas are fully operational as well. Additionally, if the pool is designed with a swim out, step jets are usually installed on either side, to keep the water circulating around them. Why Do You Need Them? Though swim jets or endless pools are smaller than lap pools, they still need a fair amount of space. So, you must provide that space to enjoy its benefits to the fullest. Weighing The Two Sides Also referred to as laminar jets (if illuminated), they shoot a stream of water up into the air that arches and lands in the pool. There are many benefits of installing a Swim Jet, with perhaps the foremost relating to health and fitness. The majority of swimming pools will allow for about 6 strokes before having to turn around, whereas Swim Jets allow a continuous swimming experience, just like being in open water. With a Swim Jet, you can have a great, efficient workout in your own pool.

Power of the water — The power of the water streaming from your jets can be the difference between an okay workout and a great swim experience. Water flow is measured in Gallons Per Minute (GPM). Anything below 600 GPM isn’t going to give you much resistance. With a high powered jet system, you can lower the levels for remedial swimming and then turn it up when you really want to burn calories. Jets can angle water flow however you wish. But to be most efficient, they should be angled down at 45 degrees. As the motor is fully submersed in pool water we recommend replacing the low-cost sacrificial anode on an annual basis to protect the motor housing. How much does it cost to run? When choosing a swim jet system, you should consider the power of the water, noise level, and make sure it is bubble-free. We all know that swimming is one of the most effective forms of exercise. With the addition of a counter current unit there are all round benefits to your daily fitness programme but just as importantly your pool can be used for gentle rehabilitation following an injury. By swimming into a flowing current of water, you can exercise within a smaller pool area. The resistance of the water flowing towards you allows you to swim continuously without being limited to the length of the pool. The Aquajet 50 has a powerful 2.5kW Pump that produces a waterflow of up to 48m3 (48,000 Litrs) an hour.Swim Jets push large quantities of water through jets creating a strong current for you to swim against. They allow you to have a proper water-based workout at your own pace, with controls to adjust the strength and speed of the current produced. Some also have different settings, such as massage settings for a hydrotherapy experience. In addition, swim jets must be bubble-free since adding bubbles to the stream of water implies they are pushing through the air and not the pool water. It will lead to a fall in energy consumption, making it challenging to create an inefficient workout. Advantages And Disadvantages Of Swim Jets After careful consideration, you’ll realize that incorporating a swim jet into concrete pools can significantly save you time and money. The Aqua Jet 100 offer twice the power of the Aquajet 50 and provide a better counter current system. As with the Aquajet 50 the Aquajet 100 comes into its own on smaller pools, providing the swimmer an effective counter current to swim against. Easy to install the Aquajet 100 can be fitted into new-build pools or retro-fitted.

Of course, when it comes to implementing new features in your pool, there will be advantages and disadvantages. Let’s take a close look at both. ProsThey operate by pushing large volumes of water through three jets. Two are positioned at the shoulders, and one is angled up at the chest. This combination creates resistance for the swimmer to swim against, and is also great for water aerobics and therapeutic exercise. Their speed and pressure can be adjusted to accommodate swimmers of all levels. How Do I Choose a Swim Jet System? To determine the worthiness of investing in a swim jet, it is essential to examine various aspects of this system, including the pool wall, and make an informed decision. So, that’s what we’ll discuss briefly before moving on to the debate over the utility of swim jets. What Is A Swim Jet?
