How to turn any pool to endless swimming. If you are planning to build this type of device ,electrical connection must be done by licensed professional.

  • Thank you, this is doable. I built a similar setup for a small hydroponics project. This is just supersized. Great idea.

    This is a great project but I knew as soon as I saw size of the pump it's not big enough. I installed a huge pump with only 1 turn between it and the pool and even that you would struggle to swim at a decent speed. My advice for anyone reading this is get a bigger pump, have few to no corners in the pipe as it reduces flow and use 40mm pipe. If you do need to have turns then use 2 45 degrees instead of one 90, it reduces the pressure. Happy building

    When our pool was installed, i asked for a second discharge pipe with valve and up sized the pump from 1 hp to 3hp variable speed. I built a 4 head manifold with eductors that give an increase flow 4-5 times as much. Works great. This guys idea is a good solution for the after the fact installs.

    Great concept idea!! 💯 for execution and neatness build...however as an FTI for Endless Pools I have seen that that the best propulsion is execute by means of propeller or turbine. Kinda like the propulsion of a jetski. Endless pools products use an underwarer hydraulic motor powered by an outside hydraulic pump motor and the water propulsion is created by means of a spining propeller inside the Fastlane housing underwarer. They have a great product and it works evenly on water surface area. These equipments cost from $7000 to $10,000 depending on installation setup. It would be great to used your concept here and use a small turbine or two with adjustable speed controls. The Fastlane is equipped with a programmed board that controls speed by remote. Its possible like I said to build a smaller version with all the new small turbine motors used today on the market for underwater aquatics. China makes ton of them😊👍

    Thank you Jacek for sharing! So glad I found this video. My husband made me a 7x12’ diy endless pool in our covered patio using a tether. Works great so far but I hope to consider having the option of swimming against a current using something like the one you built. I like glide swimming freestyle. Does your machine accommodates freestyle swimming stroke? My husband says that he can try to make one for me like the one on your video. Thanks again! -Naomi
  • Brilliant Jacek! Well done!!! Can you please tell us the pump brand and model? and how many m3/h or gallon per hour it outputs?
  • @aguas7394
    This is amazing! Can you post the list of parts you used? Do you know what the top speed is or 100 time? Any issues? Do you plug into a normal power socket? What is the liquid you poured in? Thanks!

    I just stubbled across this. Brilliant! and I'm not a swimmer! ;-)

    Hello, this is a great video. I absolutely love it. Can you please provide list of products used. I think it will be helpful for all the viewers of this video. Would really appreciate it. Thank you. Cheers.

    This is a great project you did there. It would be great if you documented it somewhere.
  • This great solution. Do you have the specs for this project?
  • Man this gives me the info i was looking for thanks i hope i can remember it all
  • I believe you will need to leave the lid open when operating so electric motor has adequate air for cooling.
