Will this jet cause the pressure to go up in the plumbing? If so how much?

I have placed a Circulator in all five of my return lines. It has not caused for the pressure in my system to increase, however I run a variable speed pump and it might be adjusting automatically for the flow. From a technical standpoint I strongly suggest for you to call the manufacturer he will certainly be able to answer your question.

Yes. The pressure goes up quite a bit. For my pool, it went up around 10 psi when I changed both return jets. I ended up returning them because I found that algae was accumulating in the pool where it hadn't before (particularly around the return jets) with the regular eyeball fittings.

Not that I could tell, however I put it in and used it for one day. I was not impressed at all. In my opinion it is a piece of junk. It did not circulate the water like it does in the videos, because of the reduction in water flow. You need pressure and volume in order too filter all the water. It ended up only ciculating the water in close proximity to the actual jet. Now I have a 30000 gal. pool and it may work in a smaller pool. Hope this helps.

I have not noticed any rise in pressure from the circulator. It has been a positive addition for our pool circulation.

It's excellent for cleaning out gunk - the best of everything I've tried for that, but unless you have severe clogs of biofilm in your jets, it probably won't help the jet pressure significantly.

It's dependant on the line pressure in your house. Our line pressure is about 65 psi and the showerhead works very well.

I'm not an expert but 60psi is normal for the cold water supply. Your pressures will vary due to length, size, and condition of your plumbing within the household. It will also vary due to temperature, say at the hot water tank. I don't know if rising to 100psi is "normal" but I would expect a higher pressure at the hot water tank and the gage is accurate. If you can stand doing without hot water cool the tank, say over night, and measure the pressure. If it drops toward the 60 reading again I would suspect things are normal.

It's good pressure for sure, but not sure if it varies by household depending on your plumbing? I also love that I can use it to fill up the tub for my daughter's baths :) That is the best part

I'm assuming you've got one on the pump since 2hp could blow most garden type hoses. You shouldn't exceed 30psi on the line and the flow should be fine. If the pressure is unregulated, who knows what it will do to your system.

Yes-- the water pressure will be reduced some as compared to a bigger dia. hose.[That is physics ] However, if you have very good [i.e high] pressure to start with, it will not be a very notable reduction. If your pressure is not very high to start with, the reduction will be much more noticeable.

Not in our home. I wouldn't worry. It sounds like you have air being sucked into the line...check your plumbing connections.

The water pressure is fine at my house so I can't answer if it would help your situation.

I would suspect it would leak, as the seals on the drain tap and valve, and on the hose connectors, are probably not designed to cope with the higher pressure.

No, and personally I had to remove a flow regulator in the other part of my shower pipe because after a couple years of use, it gunked up and severely restricted flow. After removing that, the water pressure is pretty high, which is preferred by everyone in my house other than me, but before it was just a trickle.

The pump will only add 35psi to the existing water pressure. I have a pressure guage after the pump that shows 70psi when it comes on because my water pressure is 35psi from the main supply. You are supposed to have a pressure regulator before the pump to regulate the pressure so the total pressure does not exceed what your plumbing could handle. Which is usually about 70 PSI. Hope this helps.

YES! We have low pressure. It is like hooking up a power washer to a garden hose. There aren't a bunch of settings, but you can adjust it to be less intense. I highly recommend this product. I have had one for over 10 years.

that will depend entirely on the PSI. However our pressure tank is 40-60 psi range and it will take approximately 10 mins to fill above the jets on ours.The quality of this is very good.

No but make sure the hose is rated for the incoming pressure (typically not an issue).

I would think a lower pressure would just cause it to spray in a smaller area. Otherwise, I don't know.

It has three different modes, one that is a bit dribbly but the other mode has great pressure. We just redid the plumbing with pex fittings though so that might have something to do with it too. I'm going to say though the water pressure is just fine.
