PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE TIPS
Use clear lacquer or clear nail polish to cover screw heads.
Use clear lacquer or nail polish to cover any scratches on ledges or verticals to prevent rust and corrosion.
Use wax to protect the pool wall and frame from the elements.
Never leave the pool drained (without water). This can cause liner shrinkage and damage the pool wall and frame.
If you use the Thru The Wall fittings for your filter and decide to dismantle your pool or remove your liner, it is possible
that you may not be able to realign these holes and a new liner may have to be purchased.
Check regularly for signs of wear or loose bolts that could make the pool, the pool ladder, the pool deck, or any other
related object unsafe.
For pool service, select a certified pool professional.
WARNING
Check all the metal on the pool frame and pool wall for signs of corrosion or deterioration. Remove any
corrosion and touch up with paint. Excessive deterioration can lead to failure of the pool structure, which might
release large quantities of water that could cause bodily harm and property damage.
Make sure skimmer does not leak as this will corrode the pool wall and cause a split in the wall that is not
covered under the pool warranty.
DANGER
After the pool has been completely assembled and filled with water, do not attempt to make any structural
changes or to disassemble the pool. Disregard of the above warning can cause pool collapse, property damage and
serious injury.
LIFE SAVING EQUIPMENT
It is recommended that one or more of the following lifesaving items are on hand at all times within the pool area.
A. A light, strong, rigid pole (shepherd's crook) not less than 12' long with blunt ends.
B. A 1/4" diameter throwing rope as long as 1 1/2 times the maximum width of the pool, or 50' whichever is less,
which has been firmly attached to a ring buoy with an outside diameter of approximately 15" or some other similar
flotation device.
WINTER CARE
GENERAL COMMENT: In as much as these pools are distributed to users in all geographical areas and are installed
under varying climactic conditions, you must use your own judgment to determine the wisdom of leaving your pool up
through the winter. The manufacturer cannot assume any responsibility for pool failure which might result from winter
hazards, or from misuse or neglect. To winterize your pool properly you must follow these steps:
1. If thru wall skimmer inlet and outlets are used, the skimmer must be blocked off with a block off plate to prevent
any water from laying in the skimmer. The return fitting must also be blocked off by using a plug on the inside of the
pool. It is very important that the return fitting not protrude into the pool and that water is not allowed to flow into the
skimmer. If this is not followed, when the ice in your pool forms it will grab onto your skimmer and return fittings, and
if the ice should shift it will rip your wall at these locations.
2. A properly sized ice compensator (pool pillow) must be secured in the pool water to relieve the ice pressure that can
exert severe pressure on the pool wall.
3. Proper chemicals must be used in order to prevent algae growth throughout the winter. A strong concentration of
chlorine and an algaecide will help.
4. A cover must be used to keep out dirt and debris from the pool. It is important when securing the cover that enough
slack is used so that it rests on the top of the water so that the pressure is not on the pool frame. A build up of snow
on the top of the cover should be removed.
While the pool is winterized it is important that it remain undisturbed throughout the winter months.
