Built Around Inverter Technology

At the heart of the system is a 5HP (4kw) inverter-driven hydraulic motor. 

Unlike older swim jet systems that run continuously on full power, the Velocity automatically adjusts the motor speed to match your selected flow rate. This means the systems only uses the power it needs. 

The result is: 

• Lower electricity consumption
• Quieter operation
• Less wear on moving parts
• Longer component life
• Greater control over your swimming speed

It also operates from a standard 230V-240V single-phase electrical supply, making installation more straightforward than many commercial-style systems.

Powerful Performance 

The hydraulic power pack delivers over 100 bar of hydraulic pressure to the swim jet head unit, where a specially developed 42cm propellor produces a powerful and consistent flow. 

The water is then straightened through HeatForm's custom-designed grid system, creating a wide, even current across the pool. 

When installed in a 10m x 5m x 1.5m swimming pool, the Velocity is capable of producing a pace equivalent to approxmiately 58 seconds per 100 meters, making it suitable for elite swimmings while remaining fully adjustable for beginners and recreational users.

Swimming That Feels Natural 

The Velocity Swim Jet has been developed to produce a broad, deep current rather than a narrow, concentrated stream of water. This creates a more comfortable swimming experience that closely resembles swimming against a river current, allowing you to focus on your technique without constantly turning at the end of the pool. 

With ten preset speed levels, plus fine adjustment in 2% increments, you can easily find the flow rate that suits your training or leisure swimming.

Perfect for Existing or New Pools

The Velocity Swim Jet can be incorporated into a new swimming pool build or installed into many existing pools, allowing you to enjoy endless swimming without needing a large commercial-sized pool. 

Simply reduce the flow when you want a more relaxed swim, or increase it for interval training, endurance sessions or competitive practise.

Suitable for the Whole Family

One of the biggest advantages of the Velocity system is it's versatility. 

The current can be adjusted to suit: 

• Competitive swimmers
• Triathletes
• Fitness training
• Rehabilitation exercise
• Leisure swimming
• Family fun

Whether you're looking for a training aid or a more enjoyable swimming experience, the Velocity adapts to you.
