Do not start pump dry! Running the pump dry for any length of time will cause severe damage and will void the warranty.
This pump is for use with permanently installed pools and may also be used with hot tubs and spas if so marked. Do not use with storable
pools. A permanently installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for
storage. A storable pool is constructed so that it may be readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity.
Do not install within an outdoor enclosure or beneath the skirt of a hot tub or portable spa. The pump requires adequate
ventilation to maintain air temperature at less than the maximum ambient temperature rating listed on the motor rating plate.

Pool Pump Suction Entrapment Prevention Guidelines
SUCTION HAZARD. Can cause serious injury or death. Do not use this pump for wading pools, shallow
pools or spas containing bottom drains, unless the pump is connected to at least two (2) functioning
suction outlets and/or in accordance with the latest version of ANSI
Suction Entrapment Avoidance in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, Hot Tubs, and Catch Basins.
Pump suction is hazardous and can trap and drown or disembowel bathers. Do not use or operate swimming pools,
spa, or hot tubs if a suction outlet cover is missing, broken, or loose. The following guidelines provide information for
pump installation that minimizes the risk of injury to users of pools, spas, and hot tubs:
Entrapment Protection - The pump suction system must provide protection against the hazards of suction entrapment.
Suction Outlet Covers - All suction outlets must have correctly installed, screw-fastened covers in place. All suction outlet
(drain) assemblies and their covers must be properly maintained. Suction outlets (drain) assemblies and their covers must be
listed/certified to the latest version of ANSI
if cracked, broken, or missing.
Number of Suction Outlets Per Pump - Provide at least two (2) hydraulically-balanced main drains, with covers, as suction
outlets for each circulating pump suction line. The centers of the main drains (suction outlets) on any one (1) suction line must be
at least three (3) feet apart, center to center.
The system must be built to include at least two (2) suction outlets (drains) connected to the pump whenever the pump is
running. However, if two (2) main drains run into a single suction line, the single suction line may be equipped with a valve
that will shut off both main drains from the pump. The system shall be constructed such that it shall not allow for separate or
independent shutoff or isolation of each drain. See Figure 1.
More than one (1) pump can be connected to a single suction line as long as the requirements above are met.
Unblockable SOFA – If acceptable by local code and Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ), a single unblockable SOFA may be
used. For an unblockable SOFA to qualify as an unblockable drain under the Virginia Graham Baker Act (VGBA), the Suction
Outlet Fitting Assembly (SOFA) shall be certified as unblockable, and be designated by the manufacturer as unblockable, and
the manufacturer's instructions must state the SOFA is authorized for use as an unblockable suction outlet in accordance with
ANSI/APSP/ICC-16. Certified unblockable SOFA's must be installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, the latest
edition of ANSI/PHTA/ICC-7, and applicable local code.
Water Velocity - The maximum water velocity through the suction outlet assembly and its cover for any suction outlet must
not exceed the suction fitting assembly and it's cover's maximum design flow rate. The suction outlet (drain) assembly and its
cover must comply with the latest version of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8, the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming Pools,
Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs, or its successor standard, ANSI/APSP-16.
If 100% of the pump's flow comes from the main drain system, the maximum water velocity in the pump suction hydraulic
system must be six (6) feet per second or less, even if one (1) main drain (suction outlet) is completely blocked. The flow through
the remaining main drain(s) must comply with the latest version of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 or its successor standard, ANSI/APSP-
16, the standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs.
Testing and Certification - Suction outlet assemblies and their covers must have been tested by a nationally recognized testing
laboratory and found to comply with the latest version of ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 or its successor standard, ANSI/APSP-16, the
standard for Suction Fittings For Use in Swimming Pools, Wading Pools, Spas, and Hot Tubs.
Fittings - Fittings restrict flow; for best efficiency use fewest possible fittings (but at least two (2) suction outlets, or certified
unblockable SOFA).
Avoid fittings which could cause an air trap.
Pool cleaner suction fittings must conform to applicable International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO)
standards.
