New pool owner 2 weak jets

[mike81]

I don't know I just bought the house and first time with a pool the other two jets are very strong but the other two barely have any flow. If I plug one the flow is a little better but not what it should be. I'm going to snake the line tomorrow and I hope that fixes the problem

Do NOT snake the line!

Your pool can run just fine with 4 jets, but if you break a line -- VERY possible -- you've potentially got a difficult and expensive fix that will shut down your pool. Pool lines are NOT usually run with DWV fittings that can be 'snaked': you can break them, or get your snake totally stuck. Also, both flex PVC and black poly have been used for pool piping: some snakes will go right through that piping -- NOT down the hole, but THROUGH the sidewall of the pipe!

BALANCING THE FLOW IS NOT A CRITICAL ISSUE! YOU ARE TRYING TO FIX SOMETHING THAT ALMOST CERTAINLY DOES NOT HAVE TO BE FIXED!

If you want to tackle this, do it this fall . . . unless you are ready to shut the pool down for the summer.
