IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
WARNING
!
MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Pumps can quickly generate high suction, which poses the risk of entrap-
ment if improperly connected to suction outlets. Disembowelment, entrap-
ment, or drowning is possible when body parts or hair contact damaged,
cracked, missing, or unsecured drain covers and suction outlets. Pumps
and fittings shall be installed in accordance with the latest NSPI or
IAF standards, CPSC guidelines, and national, state and local codes,
to minimize this risk. Some of those requirements are as follows. Always
consult the latest regulations to ensure that your installation meets the nec-
essary requirements to minimize suction entrapment.
1. All fully submerged Suction Outlet Covers shall be listed to
ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 standard.
2. Do not use a pump in an installation where there is only one fully
submerged single suction outlet.
3. If main drains are installed in your pool, there must be a minimum
of two for each pumping system, and each drain must include a Listed
Suction Outlet Cover. Wading pools may have additional requirements
to minimize entrapment hazards.
4. Skimmers may supply 100% of the required flow to the pump, and
must be vented to atmosphere. A skimmer is not considered a sec-
ond main drain.
5. When two suction outlets are used, the maximum system flow rate
shall not exceed the rating of any one of the listed suction outlet
covers installed. When more than two are used, the sum of the rat-
ings shall be at least twice the maximum system flow rate.
6. Each Suction Outlet Cover shall be separated by a minimum of
three feet (3'), measured from center of suction pipes.
7. Avoid installing check valves. If check valves must be used, ensure
that the installation conforms to applicable standards.
8. Never use the pool or spa if a Suction Outlet Cover is damaged,
cracked, missing, or not securely attached. Suction outlet cover must
be attached with stainless steel screws supplied with the cover. If
screws are lost, order replacement parts from your supplier.
NOTE: For the latest NSPI or IAF Standards, contact the Association of
Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP) at www.theapsp.org or (703) 838-0083,
ext. 301. For the latest Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC)
