I have been asking that question to the HD's and they look at me like I am crazy....

i was told by beckett that home depot should be able to order the injector for me but when i tell them that they say yea if ya order $1200 worth !!!

You can find them all over here in Michigan for $10.

I bought one and played it. Basically you need a lot of waterflow to work a Beckett. At least 1,000gph in my estimation.

Otherwise, they work like an inverted venturi. I see no reason you couldn't make one smaller and require less waterflow.

what exactly is a beckett???

 

[scuba_steve]

beckett is the name of the company that makes water pumps for ponds !! they also make fountain heads !! the one im looking for is a pond foamer which the pump pumps water thru it and it sucks a ton of air at the sametime !!
