Counter Current Units
A counter current unit is a high volume pump providing a flow of water from outlets along one side of the pool offering a similar sensation to swimming against the flow in a mountain stream. Swimming against the current offers all the benefits of a full exercise swim without having to move an inch.
FAQs
What is a counter current system for a swimming pool?
A counter current system (also known as a swim jet) uses a high-volume pump to push a strong flow of water across the pool, letting you swim continuously against the current without reaching the end of the pool - similar to swimming against a river current.
Is a swim jet the same as a counter current unit?
Yes, swim jet and counter current unit describe the same type of product - a pump-driven current used for resistance swimming and exercise in a fixed spot.
Can a counter current unit be fitted to an existing pool?
Yes. Several of our units, including retrofit and over-the-wall swim jets, are designed to be added to existing pools without needing to rebuild the shell.
