WARNING - Entrapment Prevention
SUCTION HAZARD. Can cause serious injury or death. Do not use this
pump for wading pools, shallow pools, or spas containing bottom drains,
unless pump is connected to at least two (2) functioning suction outlets.
WARNING: Pump suction is hazardous and can trap and drown or disembowel
bathers. Do not use or operate swimming pools, spas, or hot tubs if a suction
outlet cover is missing, broken, or loose.
The following guidelines provide information for pump installation that
minimizes risk of injury to users of pools, spas, and hot tubs:
Entrapment Protection: The pump suction system must provide protection
against the hazards of suction entrapment.
Suction Outlet Covers: All suction outlets must have correctly installed,
screw-fastened covers in place. All suction outlet (drain) covers must be
maintained. Drain covers must be listed/certied to the latest published
edition of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 (ANSI/APSP-16, 2011). They must be
replaced if cracked, broken, or missing.
Number of Suction Outlets Per Pump: Provide at least two (2) hydraulically-
balanced main drains, with covers, as suction for each circulating pump
suction line. The centers of the main drains (suction outlets) on any one (1)
suction line must be at least three (3) feet apart, center to center.
DANGER: DO NOT BLOCK SUCTION
The system must be built to include at least two (2) suction outlets (drains) connected to the pump whenever
the pump is running. However, if two (2) main drains run into a single suction line, the single suction line may
be equipped with a valve that will shut off both main drains from the pump. The system shall be constructed
such that it shall not allow for separate or independent shutoff or isolation of each drain.
More than one (1) pump can be connected to a single suction line as long as the requirements above are
met.
Water Velocity: The maximum water velocity through the suction tting or cover for any suction outlet must
be 1.5 feet per second, unless the outlet complies with the latest published edition of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8
(ANSI/APSP-16, 2011), the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming and Wading Pools, Spas,
Hot Tubs, and Whirlpool Bathtub Applications. In any case, do not exceed the suction tting’s maximum
designed ow rate.
If 100% of the pump’s ow comes from the main drain system, the maximum water velocity in the pump
suction hydraulic system must be six (6) feet per second or less, even if one (1) main drain (suction outlet)
is completely blocked. The ow through the remaining main drain(s) must comply with the latest published
edition of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 (ANSI/APSP-16, 2011), the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in
Swimming and Wading Pools, Spas, Hot Tubs, and Whirlpool Bathtub Applications.
Testing and Certication: Suction outlet covers must have been tested by a nationally recognized testing
laboratory and found to comply with the latest published edition of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 (ANSI/APSP-
16, 2011), the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming and Wading Pools, Spas, Hot Tubs, and
Whirlpool Bathtub Applications.

WARNING - Entrapment Prevention - continued
Fittings: Fittings restrict ow; for best efciency use fewest possible ttings (but at least two (2) suction outlets).
Avoid ttings that could cause an air trap.
Pool cleaner suction ttings must conform to applicable International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical
Ofcials (IAPMO) standards.
VGB Compliance
The Virginia Graham Baker Pool Safety Act promotes the safe use of pools, spas, and hot tubs by imposing
mandatory federal requirements for suction entrapments avoidance. The Act, which is being administered
by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and became effective December 19, 2008, is an
extension of the ASME standard which regulates Safety Drain Covers, Public Pool Drain Systems, and SwimJet
Combination Fittings. The VGB Pool Safety Act compliance relies on the ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 (ANSI/APSP-
16, 2011) code for proper testing and certication of the ttings. The only addition is the requirement to exhibit
VGB nomenclature on the actual tting.
The Speck SwimJet Combination Fittings are certied by MET, a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory
(NRTL) to the ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 (ANSI/APSP-16, 2011) Standard, bearing the VGB nomenclature and are
compliant with the VGB Pool Safety Act.
As a condition of the listing, all Speck Badu SwimJet Systems comply with the ANSI/APSP-7 Standard for
Suction and Entrapment Avoidance. This standard is designed to avoid all ve suction entrapment hazards: hair
entrapment, limb entrapment, body suction, evisceration/disembowelment, and mechanical entrapment.
All Speck Badu SwimJet Systems are certied by MET to the ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 (ANSI/APSP-16, 2011)
Standard and are dened in the standard paragraph 1.1.6:
1.1.6.4 Swim Jet Combination Fittings. All swim jet combination ttings that combine suction and
discharge into one housing, creating a high velocity, high volume stream of water to swim, jog, or
walk against, as well as massage, shall be considered “Swim Jet Combination Fittings”.
NOTE: There are four types of Suction Fittings that are dened in the ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 (ANSI/APSP-16,
2011) Standard for Suction Fittings for use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs. They are:
Field Fabricated Outlets, Venturi Outlets, Swim Jet Combination Fittings and Submerged Suction Outlets.
This pool pump must be installed by a licensed or certied electrician or a
qualied pool serviceman in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all
applicable local codes and ordinances. Improper installation will create an electric
hazard which could result in death or serious injury to pool users, installers, or
others due to electrical shock, and may also cause damage to property.
Always disconnect power to the pool pump at the circuit breaker before
servicing the pump. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury to
serviceman, pool users, or others due to electric shock.
WARNING - Risk of Electrical Shock or Electrocution

2 General Description
Preparation Guide
The Badu SwimJet Systems from Speck Pumps are designed to be installed during the construction of your pool
to create a water treadmill for anyone wanting a therapeutic and effective exercise.
The Badu SwimJet Systems can be installed in any type pool, large or small, from gunite to vinyl liner. It has no
protruding parts ensuring pool user’s safety, is very compact and installs at minimal cost. The self-contained,
ush-mounted unit is a jet-propulsion system that pumps water into the pool creating a current in excess of 5,700
gallons per minute from a single recessed jet housing.
Topping off the experience is the pulsating massage hose which can be attached to the jet nozzles for easy and
convenient massage treatments for joints and muscles. (NOTE: The massage hose is sold separately.)

3 Installation Information
1. Upon receipt of the swimjet system, check the cartons for damage. Open the carton and check the pump (F),
jet housing (A), and control box (E) for concealed damage, such as cracks, dents, or a bent base. If damage is
found, contact the shipper or distributor where the swimjet was purchased.
2. Inspect the contents of the carton and verify that all parts are included. All parts are manufactured of corrosion-
resistant material and combined in one single housing (two or three single housings for multi jet systems) which
can be installed in pools of any size and shape. (See Figure 1)

Planning
The BaduStream is normally incorporated into the original pool design. However, it can be added to any pool at
a later date.
The BaduStream has no protruding parts, ensuring the pool user’s safety. It is very compact and installs at
minimal cost.
The BaduStream can be installed in any size pool. We suggest a minimum pool size of 7 ft. wide, 14 ft. long
and 31/2 ft. deep in order to swim. Most swimmers prefer 16 ft. in length or longer. The extra length allows the
swimmer to comfortably drift back and swim up stream. The BaduStream is complete with jet housing, 4 HP or
3.5 HP pump, control box, and optional massage hose. The only additional requirement is the plumbing. (4” pipe
for 4 HP and 3” pipe for 3.5 HP units.) Consult local codes for minimum distance between pump and pool. Locate
pump as close to the BaduStream as practical.
Use at least 4” pipe when distance between jet housing and pump is 30 ft. or less and 6” for pipe runs
longer than 30 ft.
The 4 HP, 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 40 amp breaker to avoid nuisance tripping when pump is turned on
and off frequently. The starting current of the 4 HP motor can reach up to 6 times the running currents.
(Three phase motor draws a maximum of 12.8 amps @ 230V and 6.4 amps @ 460V.) The 3.5 HP single
phase motor draws 13.6 amps @ 230V.

Plumbing
CAUTION: All necessary screws and bolts included with the BaduStream are stainless steel. ALL screw
threads and threaded inserts are METRIC! ONLY METRIC bolts and nuts may be used! The two exceptions
are the intake and delivery connections on the BaduStream and pump housing and the hardware for the air
regulator assembly. The intake and delivery connections on the pump model 21-80 are 4” Slip (3” Slip on
pumps Model 72). The air regulator assembly hardware is US standard thread.
CAUTION: The center of the housing (the nozzle) should be 10” BELOW water level for maximum efciency. The
air regulator should be approximately 4” (or minimum 2”) ABOVE the water level. (See Figure 3)
CAUTION: When connecting the pressure line into the pressure connection on top of the 4 HP pump Model
21-80, rst install a 6” (15 cm) riser (See Figure 3) 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.
(Not required for the 3.5 HP Model 72)
CAUTION: When using 6” pipe the suction line should run to a point directly under the pump and up to the water
line in 6” and nish vertical and elbow into the pump in 4” to minimize priming time. (See Figure 3)
CAUTION: In areas with soft soil conditions or with frequent earth movement, a exible section of hose should
be attached to the back of the jet housing to prevent housing breakage.
CAUTION: Throughout the entire installation, make sure the plumbing connected to the BaduStream housing
is well supported. Unsupported plumbing will crack the housing.
The BaduSteam assembly package contains all necessary parts for the installation of the unit into concrete,
gunite, liner or berglass pools.
* 6” pipe will allow distances of well over 50 ft.
However, control box needs to be within 50 ft. for the
pneumatic on/off button to function properly.

Concrete or Gunite Installation
1. Pre-plumb BaduStream housings:
2. Tape the jet housing keep concrete out of threaded inserts and out of the inside of the housing.
3. Place jet housing into reinforced steel. Jet housing location is very important.
NOTE: Stress on the plumbing may crack the BaduStream housing.
4. Air regulator installation should be approximately 4” (or minimum 2”) ABOVE the water level.
Install plumbing manifold or approximately 12” of 4” SCH 40 pipe to both suction and discharge
ttings on the jet(s) housing. NOTE: If plumbing exceeds 30’ between jet housing and pump, increase
pipe size to 6”. Install a 6” x 4” reducing bushing as close to jet housing as possible.
Install air control PVC hose to hose socket insert ttings (part #6). Use hose clamps to secure hose
to insert ttings.
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.
The center of the housing (the nozzle) should be 10” BELOW water level for maximum efciency.
Front edge of jet housing should nish even with inside gunite wall. Make sure a V shaped groove is
scraped out around the housing approximately 11/2” deep to allow marcite to seal against the housing.
DO NOT disassemble jet nozzle from housing.
Recheck location of the jet housing when gunite is being applied. The force of the gunite may move
the jet location.
To avoid stress on the jet housing, we recommend that the BaduStream housing be encased with
gunite and at least 2 to 3 inches of the plumbing stub out is covered with gunite.

(part #27). Install the screws from the inside of the pool wall through the holes drilled at 3 and 9 o’clock positions.
(See Figure 10 & 11)
3. Install the clamping ring (part #3) and the gasket (part #12) on the inside of the pool wall using eight screws
(part # 9/2, 9/3, 9/4, or 9/5) Screw lengths vary depending on the installation.
4. For the air regulator assembly, one 1/2” hole must be provided, preferably along the vertical axis, approximately
4” (or minimum 2”) ABOVE the water line. (See Figure 10 & 11). Using the air regulator assembly gasket (part
#21), mark and drill two 1/4” mounting holes. (See Figure 10) Use two at head 1/4 - 20 machines screws (part
#18) and two 1/4-20 nuts (part #19) to mount the air regulator. (NOTE: The at head on the inside of the pool wall
and the nut on the outside of the pool wall.)
5. Keep all parts not being used now in original box. Store in a safe place until needed.
For Liner Pools Only: Install the jet housing and air regulator prior to installation or replacement of the pool liner.
For Steel Walled Pools: An optional buttery gasket (part #12A) maybe purchased to replace the two gaskets
(part #12). Increase the jet housing hole from 5.59” to 5.75” for installation. (See Figure 10)
A good RTV silicone may be used with the gasket when mounting the jet housing, but in most cases
is not necessary. Installer should decided whether or not the silicone is necessary.
When installed properly, the center of the housing (part #7) will be 10” below the surface of the water
and the hose connector 1/4” (part #6) will be at the top center of the jet housing.
When installing the BaduStream Cover (part #8). Use a Phillips head screw driver and tighten to 1.5
Nm or hand tight. (NOTE: The square cover, part #8, will have an uneven appearance if the housing
is not installed properly.)

Removal of Liner
When replacing liner or removing liner for repairs; remove 4 screws (part #9/1) which hold the square cover
(part #8) to the jet housing. Remove all screws (part #9/2 & 9/3) except the top two, which hold the clamping
ring (part #3) and gasket (part #12) to the jet housing. Back out the two remaining screws approximately halfway
and check for any movement of the jet housing from the wall. (NOTE: If the two counter sunk screws (part #27)
which hold the jet housing to the wall were installed, the jet housing should not move, and the two remaining
screws can be removed.) Remove one of the remaining two screws and slide the clamping ring (part #3) to the
side. Replace all the screws before removing the last screw. Remove or replace the liner. Reverse the process
to install liner.
NOTE: When replacing the clamping ring and screws: locate screw heads under liner, make a small cut on the
liner at the screw heads and push the liner over the screw head.
Pump and Control Box Installation
CAUTION: Before installing the Speck Pump, read the entire pump owner’s manual found in the pump box.
Consult local codes for minimum distance between pump and pool. Locate pump as close to the pool as practical.
The air button works up to a maximum of 50 ft. There is 50 ft. of air tubing in the BaduStream box.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely
supervised at all times.
The wiring of the pool motor and control box should be done by a licensed electrician in accordance with local
codes. Be certain that the motor frame and control box are grounded. Motor name plate has voltage, phase, amp
draw, and other motor information as well as wiring connection instructions.
BONDING: As required by National Electrical Code Article 680-22, the pump motor must be electrically bonded
to the pool structure (reinforced bars, etc.) by a solid copper conductor not smaller than No. 8 AWG via the
external copper bonding lug on the pump motor.
GROUNDING: Permanently ground the pump motor and control box using a conductor of appropriate size.
Connect to the No. 10 green headed ground screw provided inside the motor terminal box.
NOTE: Do not connect to electric power supply until the unit is permanently grounded.
Section 8 concerns the electric motor and control box only since all other parts, the pump, the jet unit, etc. have
complete and absolute separation from the pool water.
Operation
Remove the red ller plug or strainer tank lid on the pump and ll the pump with water. Replace the red ller plug
or lid. Push pneumatic button on. For the rst start-up allow approximately 5 minutes for the pump to prime. If
the pump has not started priming after 5 minutes, the amount of water in the pump was not sufcient. Add more
water. Due to the large volume of air that can be present in the vertical portion of the suction above the waterline,
initial priming time may be longer than with regular pool ltration pumps. It may take up to 10 minutes. This will
not damage the mechanical seal.

Operation - continued
WARNING: Do not use or operate the BaduStream if the anti-entrapment cover is missing, broken, or
loose.
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 4 ft. in front of the BaduStream. (See Section 5 Nozzle
Adjustment to properly adjust the nozzles.) Start swimming with only minimal force in arms an 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 exercising 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 ow and creates a unique, invigorating, bubble
bath effect. It will also add additional resistance to swim against.
The BaduStream’s adjustable ow nozzle(s) enables the swimmer to regulate the volume of water released
through the jet(s). Turning the nozzle clockwise reduces the ow. The swivel nozzle(s) of the BaduStream can
be positioned in various directions, allowing swimmers to use various swim styles.
When setting the nozzles for basic swimming, it is recommended that you set the nozzles in such a way that each
nozzle(s) intersects 4 feet away while at the same time breaks the surface.

5 Service and Maintenance
Optional Accessory: The Badu Swim Mirror is a
perfect addition to the BaduStream, this portable mirror
is designed to be the perfect tool to help swimmers
stay in the “swim lane”.
Optional Accessory: A pulsating massage hose can
be attached to one of the nozzles to enjoy a massage
as advised by your physician. (See Figure 1 Letter G)
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 the air regulator. Reduce the volume of water by
turning the adjustable ow nozzle(s) clockwise.
Under certain conditions it is possible that the current
“drifts off” to the left or to the right from the middle due
to water bouncing off the back wall. In the event that
this interferes with your swimming action, turn unit off
for a few minutes and restart.

Winterizing
In areas subject to freezing water temperatures, you should protect your equipment. We recommend you
purchase a winter cover kit part #2308752006K. This kit includes 1 winter plate, 1 gasket and 4 screws.
Also, you can protect your swimjet system as follows: Drain pool until water level has dropped below the anti-
entrapment cover. Then protect pump by removing drain plug and red ller plug (or lid).

6 Troubleshooting
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it matter if the housing is installed higher or
lower than the manual states?
Yes, the center of the jet must be 10” BELOW
estimated water level for proper performance of unit.
Can the air regulator be placed elsewhere?
Yes, as long as it is not continuously ooded with
water.
Can the pump be placed below water level?
Yes. However, for best performance we recommend
ordering pump for ooded suction (Model 21-80/33G)
instead of self-priming (Model 21-80/33GS). We
recommend installing valves for ease of maintenance.
How far away can the air button function properly?
A maximum of 50 ft. Consult factory for distances over
50 ft.
Do I need to install a motor starter?
No. The pump has a built-in thermal overload.
Should this be tied into my lter system?
No. The swim jet system and the lter system should
not be plumbed together as they each provide very
specic functions.
Can I use with automated controls?
Yes. It comes with the ability to tie into automated
control systems or other switching devices.
How is the current generated?
The pump generates up to 400 GPM coming out of two
jet nozzles at 27 ft. per second and 36 ft. per second
thru one nozzle creating a swim current in excess of
5000 GPM, measured 6 ft. from the jet.
What size pool do I need?
The BaduStream can be installed in any size pool.
However, we recommend a minimum length of 14’ and
a minimum width of a 7 foot swimming lane.
What size plumbing is necessary? How far away
from the BaduStream can the pump be installed?
Use 4” plumbing up to 30’. For runs longer that 30’ use
6” plumbing. The pump can be placed as close to the
BaduStream as local codes will allow.
How many amps does the pump operate at?
4 HP: Maximum 19.4 amps @ 230 V
3.5 HP: Maximum 13.6 amps @ 230 V
What size breaker do I need?
You must use a 40 amp breaker for the 4 HP pump or
30 amp breaker for the 3 HP pump to avoid nuisance
tripping.
Is the BaduStream approved?
Yes. The BaduStream swim jet system is listed by
MET and complies with UL standard 1563 Swimming
Pool Equipment, ASME standard ANSI/ASME
A112.19.8 (ANSI/APSP-16, 2011) Standard for Swim
Jet Combination Fittings, and is VGB 2008 compliant.
Do the covers come in different colors?
Yes. The round covers can be ordered in gray or black.
The square cover is only available in black or white.
Does the air regulator come in different colors?
Yes. The air regulator can be ordered in black.
