Its the rate of flow that your after not the pressure
You may can have great preassure with f/all flow

If you're running it off the pool pump try blocking a couple of the other outlets.

Something like a 1500mm waterblade setup will require that you have round 1L/s flowing out of it to give a nice cascaded effect. What's your pump capable of at that lift?

Try pumping a bit harder haha... Is it possible to fit inline another pump ? What is holding it back ?the pipe or the pool pump not giving it enough ? Also depends how far down the line the water feature is getting it's feed. |

ok, from the pump to the feature is 10 metres. it is 40mm pipe from the filter to the back of the feature reduced into 2 25mm pipes as the connections on the water blade are 25mm screw ins. i went to the pool shop and the guyn reckons it needs to be 40mm all the way. right up to the blade. does this sound right?
cheers
