before installing the liner. See Figure 18.2. The hole for suction
from the pool for the jets should be cut 4" below the three inline
thru-walls on the front panel. If the pool is located outdoors
where freezing is an issue, care must be taken with the jet sys-
tem plumbing. The freeze control option should be considered
under these conditions. Call Customer Service with any ques-
tions about this limitation.
19. Optional Underwater Lights System
Underwater Lights are an important aesthetic option. Typically
located on either the side or the end wall of the pool, these two

provided before the felt and the liner are installed. See Figure
19.1. Directions come with the lights which are packaged in the
pool crate. See Figure 19.2. These directions are also found in
Tech Bulletin #7B. These lights must be installed in accordance
with local electrical codes by a licensed electrician. Each light
consists of a dry niche which serves as a porthole. The low-volt-
age light threads into this porthole outside the pool. For outdoor
installations a weather resistant can is provided for added pro-
tection. A 50' cord connects this light to a transformer which in
turn plugs into a switched GFI outlet.
20. Optional Swim Current Gauge
The speed of the swim current in an Endless Pool
of hydraulic pressure. This pressure can be read using the gauge
on the power unit. Alternatively, the optional Swim Current
Gauge may be plumbed into the high pressure hydraulic line
and the pressure may be read poolside in PSI (Pounds per
Square Inch). See Figure 20.1. This pressure will correlate with
swim current speed. The correlation, however, is inexact and
will change as the hydraulic fluid heats up. Pressure is a good
way to set the repeatable speed of the machine. A simple alter-
native is to use the position of the blue speed control knob. The
plumbing of the optional Swim Current Gauge is described in
Tech Bulletin #8.

21. Optional Corner Step
To assist with access to the Endless Pool, optional
stainless steel Corner Steps are available inside the Endless Pool
in any of the four corners. For a more complete discussion of
access to an Endless Pool please refer to the Planning Guide.
These optional steps are approximately 11" high and are secured
to the internal stainless steel bench/water return system. They
are easily installed using a phillips screwdriver. If you wish to
order them after the pool has shipped, contact the Customer
Service Department and they will ship one to the address pro-
vided. The optional Corner Step is described more fully in Tech
Bulletin #9. A 6" high Corner Step is also available.
22. Optional Full Depth Stair
For those needing an easier route into the pool our optional Full
Depth Stair provides seven low-rise steps and a handrail.
