IMPORTANT SITE SELECTION AND GROUND
• The pool location must allow you to secure all doors, windows, and safety barriers to prevent
unauthorized, unintentional or unsupervised pool entry.
• Install a safety barrier that will eliminate access to the pool for young children and pets.
• Failure to set up the pool on flat, level, compact ground and to assemble and fill with water in
accordance with the following instructions could result in the pool's collapse or the possibility
that a person lounging in the pool could be swept out/ejected, resulting in serious injury or
property damage.
• Risk of electric shock: connect the filter pump only to a grounding type receptacle protected
by a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) or residual current device (RCD). To reduce the risk
of an electrical shock, do not use extension cords, timers, plug adapters or converter plugs
to connect the pump to an electrical supply. Always provide a properly located outlet. Locate
the cord where it cannot be damaged by lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment.
See the filter pump manual for additional warnings and instructions.
• Risk of serious injury: do not attempt to assemble pool in high wind conditions.
Select an outdoor location for the pool with the following requirements in mind:
1.
The area where the pool is to be set up must be absolutely flat and level. Do not set up the pool on a
slope or inclined surface.
2.
The ground surface must be compacted and firm enough to withstand the pressure and weight of a fully
set up pool. Do Not set up the pool on mud, sand, soft or loose soil conditions.
3.
Do not set up the pool on a deck, balcony or platform, which may collapse under the weight of the filled
pool.
4.
The pool requires at least 5 - 6 feet (1.5 - 2.0 m) of space all around pool from objects that a child could
climb on to gain access to the pool.
5.
Grass under the pool will be damaged. Splash out chlorinated pool water could damage the surrounding
vegetation.
6.
If the ground is not concrete (i.e., if it is asphalt, lawn or earth) you must place a piece of pressure-treated
wood, size 15" x 15" x 1.2" (38 x 38 x 3cm), under each U-shaped support and set flush or even with the
ground. Alternatively you may use steel pads or reinforced concrete slabs. Consult your local pool supply
retailer for advice on support pads.
NOTE: Do not use support pads or slabs with slippery, smooth surfaces as the U-shaped side support
will slide outward causing damage to the pool and void the warranty.
7.
Eliminate all aggressive grasses first. Certain types of grass such as St. Augustine and Bermuda, may
grow through the liner. Grass growing through the liner it is not a manufacture defect and is not covered
under warranty.
8.
The area shall facilitate drainage of the pool water after each use and/or for long term pool storage.
