Page 5: Design & Layout
DESIGN & LAYOUT PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION The IN-FLOOR SYSTEM cleans by injecting pressurized water through a series of nozzles located throughout the pool. The pressurized water flow keeps dirt in suspension for removal by the pool filtration system, an active main drain, a skimmer, and an optional in-deck debris canister. -
Page 6: Nozzle Placement
NOZZLE PLACEMENT STEP 1 - DRAW POOL SHAPE A scaled drawing of the pool must be made including the following details: A. Outline of pool shape B. All steps, benches, offsets, etc. C. Normal main drain location D. Break or transition point between shallow and deep end (if applicable) E. -
Page 7: Dimensioned Nozzle Placement Drawing
DIMENSIONED NOZZLE PLACEMENT DRAWING After the nozzle placement has been determined, a scaled drawing will be made with dimensions clearly indicated. The dimensioned drawing should be the plumber’s guide and a part of the superintendent’s check sheet to insure proper placement. -
Page 8: Pump Requirements
PUMP REQUIREMENTS Selecting Proper Pump Size 1. Determine GPM and Ft./Hd. requirements from Specification Chart below. 2. Refer to manufacturer’s pump curve for the equipment specified for the pool. 3. Compare Part # and Model #. Do not rely on horsepower. Most manufacturers make both full-rated and up-rated pumps This also relates to low and high service factors. -

CANISTER PLUMBING DETAIL & PRESSURE TEST The DDC2 patented debris canister is unique in that the lid is a water sealed lid. NOTE; Because of this the canister has a socket for a 1½" equalizer line that must be plumbed through the pool wall with a 1½" straight pipe. There are two other sockets one on each side of the equalizer line. -

Page 25: Winterizing Instructions
WINTERIZING INSTRUCTIONS WINTERIZATION PROCEDURE FOR IN-FLOOR SYSTEM There are many methods to winterizing a pool and pool equipment. Different methods are used depending on regional conditions. It is the pool operator’s responsibility to ensure all components of the pool and pool equipment are protected from the most severe freeze conditions in their specific area. -
Page 26: Winterization Procedure For Equipment Side Debris Canister
WINTERIZATION PROCEDURE FOR EQUIPMENT SIDE DEBRIS CANISTER The EDC canister must be winterized in areas prone to freezing temperatures. 1. Remove the EDC canister lid and basket (and optional fine mesh bag). 2. Use a wet or dry vacuum to remove all the water from the EDC. 3. -
Page 27: Troubleshooting
TROUBLESHOOTING IN-FLOOR CLEANING SYSTEM TROUBLE SHOOTING ISSUE SOLUTION The system doesn’t clean like it has previously • If the nozzles are turning on and off in groups, but don’t clean as far as they once did, then the in-floor system isn’t getting enough water to run effectively. A quick way to check this is by looking at the pressure gauge, it needs to be 9-10 PSI or above. - Page 28 Clean area around one zone only When one set of Nozzles comes on with the pump each day, but never rotates more than once a day, the Water Valve isn’t cycling. • “Pause” Mode may be active. Turn the Knob on top of the Water Valve to “RUN”.
