General Description
The BaduJet Imperial from Speck Pumps has been designed to be installed during the construction of your pool to create a
water treadmill for anyone wanting a therapeutic and e ective exercise. The BaduJet Imperial can be installed in any type
of pool, large or small, from gunite to vinyl liner. The self-contained, flush-mounted unit is a jet-propulsion system that
pumps water into the pool creating a current in excess of 5,700 gallons per minute from a recessed jet housing. Topping o
the experience is the pulsating massage hose which can be attached to the jet nozzles for easy and convenient massage
treatments for joints and muscles.

Pool pump must be installed by a licensed or certified electrician or a qualified pool
serviceman in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes
and ordinances. Improper installation will create an electric hazard which could result in
death or serious injury to pool users, installers, or others due to electrical shock, and may
also cause damage to property.
Always disconnect power to the pool pump at the circuit breaker before servicing
the pump. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury to serviceman, pool
users, or others due to electric shock.
