Setup Instructions - Intex 28241EH Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT SITE SELECTION AND GROUND
• The pool location must allow you to secure all doors, windows, and safety barriers to prevent
unauthorized, unintentional or unsupervised pool entry.
• Install a safety barrier that will eliminate access to the pool for young children and pets.
• Failure to set up the pool on flat, level, compact ground and to assemble and fill with water in
accordance with the following instructions could result in the pool's collapse or the possibility
that a person lounging in the pool could be swept out/ejected, resulting in serious injury or
property damage.
• Risk of electric shock: connect the filter pump only to a grounding type receptacle protected
by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). To reduce the risk of an electrical shock, do not
use extension cords, timers, plug adapters or converter plugs to connect the pump to an
electrical supply. Always provide a properly located outlet. Locate the cord where it cannot
be damaged by lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment. See the filter pump
manual for additional warnings and instructions.
• Risk of serious injury: do not attempt to assemble pool in high wind conditions.
Select an outdoor location for the pool with the following requirements in mind:
1. The area where the pool is to be set up must be absolutely flat and level. Do not set up the pool on
a slope or inclined surface.
2. The ground surface must be compacted and firm enough to withstand the pressure and weight of a
fully set up pool. Do not set up the pool on mud, sand, soft or loose soil conditions.
3. Do not set up the pool on a deck, balcony or platform, which may collapse under the weight of the filled
pool.
4. The pool requires at least 4 feet of space all around pool from objects that a child could climb on to gain
access to the pool.
5. Grass under the pool will be damaged. Splash out chlorinated pool water could damage the surrounding
vegetation.
6. Above ground storable pools shall be located at a minimum distance of 6 ft (1.83 meters) from any
receptacle, and all 125-volt 15- and 20-ampere receptacles located within 20 ft (6.0 meters) of the
pool shall be protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI), where distances are by measuring
the shortest path the supply cord of an appliance connected to the receptacle would follow without
piercing a floor, wall, ceiling, doorway with hinged or sliding door, window opening, or other effective
permanent barrier.
7. Eliminate all aggressive grasses first. Certain types of grass such as St. Augustine and Bermuda, may
grow through the liner. Grass growing through the liner it is not a manufacture defect and is not covered
under warranty.
8. The area shall facilitate drainage of the pool water after each use and/or for long term pool storage.
Before allowing anyone to use the pool, hold a family meeting. Establish a set of rules that
include, at a minimum, the important safety rules and general aquatic safety information in this
manual. Review these rules on a regular basis and with all users of the pool, including guests.
The installer of the vinyl liner shall affix on the original or replacement liner, or on the pool
structure, all safety signs in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The safety signs
shall be placed above the water line.
