ABSTRACT:
A perimeter skimming gutter and retaining wall of a swimming pool comprises an elongate open first gutter conduit extending about the periphery of the swimming pool for receiving water from the swimming pool; an elongate closed second gutter conduit extending about the periphery of the swimming pool adjacent the first gutter conduit and in fluid communication with the first gutter conduit for receiving water from the first gutter conduit for water flow in a direction toward a filtration and circulation system; and a plurality of water-spray tubes disposed within the second gutter conduit and extending transversely to the water flow through the second gutter conduit. Each water-spray tube includes a plurality of jet spray openings arranged to direct a spray of water within the second gutter conduit only in the direction of water flow toward the filtration and circulation system to propel and thereby increase water flow within the second gutter conduit. A source of pressurized water is fed to the water spray tubes. The second gutter conduit has a generally rectangular cross-section along the direction of water flow and the water-spray tube extends along and is secured to an inner peripheral cross-sectional surface of the second conduit. Alternatively, the second gutter conduit has a circular cross-section or a trapezoidal cross-section and the water-spray tube extends along and is secured to the entire inner peripheral cross-sectional surface thereof. Preferably, the wall is formed from a plurality of modular units constructed off-site of the swimming pool.
