Paramount Fountain Manifold Plumbing w/
Water Feature Booster Pump (Fig. 11)
1. Fountains using a Booster Pump must have a
strainer such as a Jandy Energy Filter (Part# 3456)
between the pump and the fountains.
2. If a Booster Pump is used to run Water Features in
the pool it is imperative to have a means of bleeding
off the excess water that does not go through the
Fountains. This can be accomplished by adding
other water features and wall returns.
3. Each Fountain that is installed should be run with its
own 1-½" gate valve to allow adjustment of water
flow to each Fountain individually for the desired
effect.
4. DO NOT use a 2-way or 3-way valve in place of the
gate valve to the Fountains. 2-way and 3-way valves
do not easily make minor adjustments and may
damage the Fountainheads.
5. A 2-way ball valve must be plumbed between
the tee to the last Fountain and the wall returns
so the Fountains water heights may be adjusted
individually.
