JUNCTION BOX AND 1/2" RUN HOSES (OPTIONAL)
Section 5
The wall mount bracket must be attached on the pool wall as explained in the installation instructions in
Section 4. Attached to this bracket are two (2) lengths of 1-1/2" (38mm) PVC flex pipe that run back under
the deck and carry two (2) hydraulic hoses.
If the hydraulic hose runs back to the Power Unit are less than 25' (7,6m), it is not necessary to step up to
1/2" run hose to reduce pressure loss. Instead, the 3/8" (9,5mm) hydraulic hose can run directly to the Pow-
er Unit in the protective conduit.
If the hydraulic hose runs are greater than 25' (7,6m), in order to reduce pressure loss and potential reduc-
tion in speed, a junction box must be used. It is at the junction box where a step up to 1/2" run hose occurs.
The hydraulic hose from the Fastlane Pro Swim Unit to the junction box is 3/8" (9,5mm) and the run hose
from the junction box to the Power Unit is 1/2". It's important the junction box is installed in suitable loca-
tion. Access to the junction box MUST be maintained for future maintenance.
