The Frothy brass spray nozzle has a large column jet that rises straight up in a tighter tower and falls in a smaller splash zone than the traditional foamjet or ice tower geyser. The effect a sturdy hose-like geyser. Multiple nozzles can be used to create majestic towers of water of different heights.
IMPORTANT: This nozzle is water level dependent. See diagram below to show correct placement of geyser nozzle at water level.
The final height of your Frothy spray nozzle pattern and the diameter of the outer tiers will depend on the pump flow and the size of the nozzle chosen. Ensure that the hose or PVC tubing that connects your pump to the nozzle is a sufficient diameter. Always try to use a pipe with the same diameter as the nozzle to minimize loss of flow from pipe friction.
The following chart is an approximate detailing of various spray heights with various pump flows at required head rating. Ensure your pump gives the recommended flow at the specified head (height).
