Abstract

A pool, as disclosed in the primary application (17/066446), that permits the operation of a Floating Water Jet connected to the water return port from a pool pump via a pool hose which delivers pressurized water to the Floating Water Jet and thus providing the propulsion force to propel the Floating Water Jet over the water surface by the force of the jet spray. The sustained movement of the Floating Water Jet and the connected pool hose create conditions in the pool that exploit the characteristic of water as a gravitational/buoyancy filter. All "sinkable" debris in the entire body of water of an average residential swimming pool is "stripped" of its buoyancy and made to sink to the pool floor at a highly accelerated rate (less than 16-18 hours on average). Leaving the water, from the surface down to the floor, free of debris (from the smallest dust particle to the largest leaf).
