1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2. INTRODUCTION AND
PLANNING
The BADU®STREAM II is normally incorporated
into the original pool design. However, it can be
added to any pool at a later date.
The BADU®STREAM II has no protruding parts,
ensuring the pool user’s safety. It is very compact
and installs at minimal cost.
The BADU®STREAM II can be installed in most
pools. We suggest a minimum pool size of
2.1m wide x 4.2m long and 1m deep in order to
swim. Most prefer 5.3m in length or longer. The
extra length allows the swimmer to comfortably
drift back and swim up stream. The
BADU®STREAM II is complete with jet housing,
4 HP pump, control box, and optional massage
hose. The only additional requirement is the
plumbing. (80mm or 100mm pipe and fittings
depending on the distance to the pump).
Consult local codes for minimum distance
between pump and pool. Locate pump as close
to the BADU®STREAM II as practical.
Use at least 80mm pipe when distance
between jet housing and pump is 6m or less
and 100mm pipe for runs longer than 6m.
The 4HP, self-priming, plastic pump has a
single phase motor with thermal overload
(no motor starter required). The 4 HP single
phase motor draws a maximum of 19.4 amps
@ 230V. The unit requires a minimum circuit
of 30 amps. Install a 40amp breaker to avoid
nuisance tripping when the pump is turned
on and off frequently. The starting current of
the 4 HP motor can reach up to 6 times the
running currents.

Fig 1.
The BADU®STREAM II assembly package
contains all necessary parts for the installation of
the unit into concrete, gunite, liner or fiberglass
pools.
!CAUTION : All necessary screws and bolts
included with the BADU®STREAM II are
stainless steel or plastic. ALL screw threads and
threaded inserts are METRIC! ONLY METRIC
bolts and nuts may be used! The two exceptions
are the connecting thread for the intake and ·
delivery connections on the BADU®STREAM II
and pump housing and the hardware for the air
regulator assembly. The intake and delivery
connections on the pump model 21-80 are
80mm NPT threads and 80mm slip. The air
regulator assembly hardware is US standard
thread.
!CAUTION : The centre of the housing (the
nozzle) should be 250mm BELOW water level
for maximum efficiency. The air regulator
should be approximately 100mm ABOVE the
water level.
(See fig. 3.)
!CAUTION : When connecting the pressure line
to the pressure connection on top of the 4 HP
Pump Model 21-80, first install a 15cm (6") riser
(fig. 1) before installing an elbow and leading
the pressure line downward to the pressure
connection at the jet housing. This will guarantee
trouble-free priming of the pump.
!CAUTION : The suction line should run below
water level right up to the pump location.
!CAUTION : In areas with soft soil conditions or
with frequent earth movement, a flexible section
of hose should be attached to the back of the jet
housing to prevent housing breakage.
!CAUTION :Throughout the entire
installation, make sure plumbing connected
to the BADU®STREAM II housing is well
supported. Unsupported plumbing will
crack the BADU®STREAM II housing.

Plumbing Suggestions

!WARNING

4. CONCRETE OR GUNITE
INSTALLATION
A. Preplumb BADU®STREAM II Housings.
1. Install plumbing manifold or approximately
300mm of 80mm pipe to both suction and
discharge fittings on the jet(s) housing. NOTE: If
plumbing exceeds 6m between jet housing and
pump, increase pipe size to 100mm. Install a
80mm reducing bushing as close to jet housing
as possible.
2. Install air control PVC hose to hose socket
insert fittings (part # 6). Use hose clamps to
secure hose to insert fitting.
B. Tape jet housing. Keep concrete out of
threaded inserts and out of the inside of the
housing.
C. Place jet housing into reinforced steel. Jet
housing location is very important.
1. Locate air control hose connector (part #6) at
the top and center of jet housing. Air control hose
connectors must be vertical or the square cover
will be uneven in appearance.
2. The center of the housing (the nozzle) should
be 250mm BELOW water level for maximum
efficiency.
3. Front edge of jet housing should finish even
with inside gunite wall. Make sure a V shaped
groove is scraped out around the housing
approximately 35mm deep to allow marcite to
seal against the housing.
4. Recheck location of the jet housing when

5. Liner and/or Fibreglass Pool
Installation
!CAUTION : Locate the air control hose
connector (part #6) at the top and center of the
jet housing. Connectors must be exactly vertical
or the cover will be uneven in appearance.
!CAUTION : Center of Housing should be
250mm BELOW water level for maximum
efficiency.
!CAUTION : Clamping ring gasket (part # 12)
goes in FRONT of pool wall. A good RTV silicone
may be used with gasket when mounting jet
housing, but in most cases is not necessary.
Installer should decide whether or not silicone is
necessary.
gunite is being applied. The force of the gunite
may move the jet location.
5. To avoid stress on the jet housing, we
recommend that the BADU®STREAM II housing
be encased with gunite and at least 50mm of
the plumbing stub out is covered with gunite.
NOTE: Stress on the plumbing may crack the
BADU®STREAM II housing.
D. Air regulator installation should be
approximately 100mm ABOVE the water level.
1. Air regulator holder and hose socket insert
fitting connect to PVC hose. Make sure air
regulator holder face is tapped over to prevent
gunite from entering holder.

2. Air regulator can be located in the tile line
above water line or in the deck.
E. Keep all parts not being used now in original
box. Store in a safe place until needed.
An extension ring is available (upon request) for
an application that has special needs.
For Fibreglass pools only, the clamping ring
(part #3) can be used to mark and drill the holes
as shown in Fig. 4. For the air regulator, one 12mm
hole must be provided,preferably along the vertical
axis, approximately 100mm ABOVE the water line.
For Liner pools only, two holes at the horizontal
axis of the jet housing and the two holes on
the air regulator will allow both housing and air
regulator to be mounted to the pool wall before
the liner is installed. Use the two plastic M6
counter sunk bolt (part #18) and two M6 nuts
(part #19) (bolt heads on poolside and nuts on
backside) to mount the air regulator and two
screws (part #27) to mount the housing. This
will keep the holder and jet housing attached to
the pool wall during installation or replacement
of liner.
6 Removal of Liner
When replacing liner or removing liner for repairs;
remove 4 bolts (part #9/1) which hold square
cover (part #8) to jet housing. Remove all bolts
(part #9/2 & 9/3) except top two, which hold
the clamping ring (part# 3 and gasket (part
#12) to jet housing. Back out the two remaining
bolts approximately halfway and check for any
movement of jet housing from the wall. (NOTE: If
the two counter sunk bolts (part# 27) which hold
the jet housing to the wall were installed, the jet
housing should not move, and the two remaining
bolts can be removed.)
Remove one of the remaining two bolts and slide
clamping ring (part #3) to the side. Replace all
the bolts before removing the last bolt. Remove
or replace liner. Reverse process to install liner.
NOTE: When replacing clamping ring and bolts:
locate bolt heads under liner, make small cut on
liner at the bolt heads and push liner over bolt
head.

To start swimming, jogging or running it is
suggested that the two nozzles are pointed
slightly inward and slightly upward so that the
water “breaks” approximately 1.2m in front of
the BADU®STREAM II Start swimming with
only minimal force in arms and legs until you feel
yourself drifting backwards, then add force and
swim upstream until a proper balance is found
between force and endurance.
Keep in mind that this unit is designed for a
balanced workout. Find a pace that you can keep
up for at least 20 minutes. Out pacing is always
possible. The idea is to continue exercise for an
extended period of time.
Consult your physician before attempting any
strenuous exercise. This product may not be
challenging or satisfying for all levels of exercise.
The air regulator permits a controlled mixture
of air into the water flow and creates a unique,
invigorating, bubble bath effect. It will also add
additional resistance to swim against.
BADU®STREAM II’s adjustable flow nozzle
enables, swimmer to regulate the volume of water
released through the jet(s). Turning the nozzle
clockwise reduces the flow.
The swivel nozzle(s) of the BADU®STREAM II
can be positioned in various directions, allowing
swimmers to use various swim styles.
OPTION: A pulsating massage hose can be
attached to one of the nozzles for massages. (Ask
your dealer for availability.) Use massage hose as
advised by your physician.
Directions for use: Consult your physician before
using the massage hose. To reduce the risk of
injury, do not permit children to use the massage
hose with pulsator unless they are closely
supervised at all times. Close air regulator. Reduce
the volume of water by turning the adjustable flow
nozzle(s) clockwise.
Under certain conditions it is possible that the
current “drifts off” the left or the right from the
middle due to water bouncing off the back wall.
In the event that it interferes with your swimming
action, turn unit off for a few minutes and restart.
!WARNING : Do not use or operate the
BADU®STREAM II if the round anti-entrapment
cover is missing, broken, or loose.
9. WINTERISING
In areas subject to freezing water temperatures,
protect pump by removing drain plug and red filler
plug (or lid).
Drain pool until water level has dropped below
the square, anti-entrapment cover. Alternatively
purchase a winter cover kit part # 2308752006K.
