Pagina afdrukkenWARNINGS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SUCTION ENTRAPMENT HAZARD
Pool and spa pumps produce high levels of suction, which can pose extreme danger if a person comes in close proximity to an open
pool or spa drain or if a drain cover is loose, cracked, broken or missing. Pool and spa pumps move large volumes of water, which can
pose extreme danger if a person's hair comes in close proximity to a drain that is not the proper size for the pump or pumps. Suction
entrapment dangers include:
Hair Entanglement – When the hair tangles or knots in the drain cover, trapping the swimmer underwater. This hazard is present
when the flow rating of the cover is too small for the pump or pumps.
Limb Entrapment – When a limb is sucked or inserted into an opening resulting in a mechanical bind or swelling. This hazard is present
when a drain cover is missing, broken, loose, cracked or not properly secured.
Body Entrapment – When a portion of the body is held against the drain cover, trapping the swimmer underwater. This hazard is present
when the drain cover is missing, broken or the cover flow rating is not high enough for the pump or pumps.
Evisceration/Disembowelment – When a person sits on an open pool (particularly a wading pool) or spa outlet, and suction is applied
directly to the intestines, causing severe intestinal damage. This hazard is present when the drain cover is missing, loose, cracked or not
properly secured.
Mechanical Entrapment – When jewelry, swimsuit, hair decorations, a finger, a toe or a knuckle is caught in an opening of an outlet or
drain cover. This hazard is present when the drain cover is missing, broken, loose, cracked or not properly secured.
Use these fittings only with a pumping system rated for the corresponding flow or less. Failure to do so can
result in hair or body entrapment, which can cause severe injury or death. If in doubt about the rating of your
system, consult a qualified pool or spa professional.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Regularly inspect all drain covers for cracks, damage and advanced weathering. If a drain cover becomes loose, cracked, damaged,
broken or is missing, close the pool or spa immediately, post a notice and keep the pool or spa closed until an appropriate VGB 2008
certified drain cover is properly installed. Drain covers deteriorate over time due to exposure to sunlight and pool chemicals. The
drain cover must be replaced within five years from installation (or earlier if the cover becomes damaged in any way).
An VGB 2008 approved anti-entrapment drain cover must be used for each drain. If a drain
cover becomes loose, broken or is missing, close the pool or spa immediately and shut off the pump until
an approved anti-entrapment drain cover is properly installed with the supplied stainless steel screws. Only the supplied 316 stainless-
steel screws should be used with the drain cover. Substitute screws such as masonry screws, sheet rock screws or other types of screws
should never be used. Screws put into the frame anywhere except in the original screw holes will not hold and
will allow the drain cover to come off the main drain, causing an entrapment hazard, including possible limb and body entrapment
or evisceration/disembowelment. If the screw holes of the frame are stripped or the brass inserts are missing, loose or damaged,
replace the frame. DO NOT DRILL NEW SCREW HOLES IN THE FRAME AS THIS WILL DAMAGE AND WEAKEN THE FRAME.
