BWT COVERDECK AX-IN Installation And Maintenance Instructions Manual page 52

2.5. Guarantee covering the beam flange and brackets (for models
The beam flanges and brackets (used to support the beam or duckboarding) supplied with BWT covers are
covered by a 5 year guarantee concerning their structural integrity over time, subject to the conditions that said
flanges and brackets were installed in accordance with the technical recommendations, and operated in
accordance with the operating instructions, set out in this manual.
The following are excluded from the scope of the guarantee covering flanges and brackets:
Damage resulting from the use of water treatment systems and/or products incompatible with the materials
constituting the BWT cover end plates, or occasioned by the use of water treatment systems and/or products
other than in compliance with the instructions provided by the manufacturers of the aforementioned systems and
products. The user's attention is specifically drawn to the risks of corrosion of the BWT cover end plates
associated with the presence of salt in the pool water whether or not said presence is combined with the use of
a salt electrolysis system;
Damage caused by excessive dosing of oxidising products (Redox potential above 750 mV);
Damage occasioned by stray current in the water, and associated with micro electrical leaks from some devices,
not channelled away by the effective functional earthing of the pool water;
Damage occasioned by cleaning the axle with an incompatible product (corrosive, abrasive, etc.);
Damage caused by using the automatic cover in a manner that does not comply with the instructions set out in
this manual.
The deposition of ferric oxides on the end plates, resulting from the oxidation of metallic particles present in the
pool water that can be removed simply by cleaning is also excluded from the scope of this guarantee.
3. Guarantees covering accessories
3.1. Guarantee on the beam and the finishing trim
The beam and the finishing trim (in the case of covers on pools fitted with high water level skimmers) made of
lacquered aluminium are covered by a 5 year guarantee concerning their structural integrity over time, subject
to the condition that they were installed in accordance with the technical recommendations, and operated in
accordance with the operating instructions, set out in this manual.
NOTA BENE: The beam (or the finishing trim) and the associated duckboarding serve a mainly decorative
purpose, in that they hide the mechanical components of the cover from the bathers' view.
Consequently, they should be left free of any loads, in order to allow fast and easy access to the cover or
extension pit.
At lengths of over 6.10 metres, the beam must be supported by brackets installed at regular intervals to limit its
deformation. The number of brackets required is calculated as follows:
Length of the beam (metres)
Less than 6.10
Between 6.10 and 8.09
Between 8.10 and 10.09
Between 10.10 and 12.09
