I did some searching and I saw a few older threads from back 8+ years ago now on DIY deck jets - so figured I'd start a new thread here. Here's a link to my pool renovation thread for reference:
www.troublefreepool.com
Currently, our decking has been removed, and I'm in between the completion of the pool renovation itself, which was done late last week, and the hardscaping project start, which should start next Monday, July 1st. The hardscaping project is estimated to take 3-4 weeks to complete (big project). So I've got probably 2-3 weeks where I could add deck jets to either where the new hardscaped pool deck will be installed along the back side of the pool, closest to the pool equipment. Anyone have any advice or recent experience with DIY deck jet installs? Our pool is roughly 36 feet total length - so I figured 3-4 deck jets? I could run low voltage electric as well, if I wanted to add LED lighting deck jets for example. Is there a general best practice as to how far apart deck jets should be?
Below is a pic that may help to provide some sense of the pool placement in our back yard. You can see some of our pool equipment along the left hand side of the pool - that is where any deck jets would be placed.

Backyard transformation project - many years delayed - finally under way!
Haven't been here on the forums since COVID basically, here's the original thread for reference: https://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/major-backyard-pool-reno-project-planning-getting-started-advice-appreciated.146585/ We're finally starting our back yard transformation project in earnest...
