Important Pool Safety & Maintenance
Keep your pool wall and frame clean. Always wash away any deposits of pool chemicals which land on the frame of your pool. Wash periodically with a
mild soap solution (no abrasives). At least once a year use a clear non-yellowing household wax on all metal components.
Your pool and liner must be inspected regularly for leaks, corrosion, scratches, and punctures. If any problem is found IMMEDIATE CORRECTIVE
ACTION MUST BE TAKEN. Small repairs and punctures in your liner may be easily repaired using repair kits available at your local dealer. Scratches on
your pool wall & frame must be touched up with anti-rust enamel. Wire brush all rust and add a coat of enamel primer followed by a coat of color
matching paint. Pool water is full of various caustic chemicals, which will corrode metal parts. If any corrosion is allowed to continue, failure of the pool
structure may occur which could result in excessive property damage as well as bodily harm.
The skimmer area and below it are particular areas that must be carefully and regularly inspected. If this area is wet, and remains wet for any
length of time, it usually means there is a small leak. Skimmer/skimmer return gaskets must be replaced when they become defective. Water must
not be permitted to continually run down the wall, if neglected pool will break. If proper skimmer/skimmer return gasket care is not
maintained, your warranty will be void!
Be sure to follow all local and state safety regulations when installing any accessory to your pool. Any decks, and all entries, must be carefully
monitored for safety and access to pool. Installing any other manufacturer's deck or slide is strictly forbidden!
Winterizing Your Pool
During the winter your pool is subject to more stress than in the summer, and any breakage that is caused by incorrect winter procedures is not subject
to any warranty with this company.
All of our pools and liners are designed to be left up all winter, but nonetheless are subject to the warranty of the liner being purchased. Continue to
chlorinate and filter until the pool is closed down.
Before closing down your pool for the winter you must make a complete inspection of the pool.
• Check all the connections to make sure everything is tight and in good condition
• Check to see that the liner is snugly held in place over the wall.
• Check for any indication of rust or deterioration in any part.
IF ANY OF THE ABOVE IS FAULTY YOU MUST CORRECT THE SITUATION IMMEDIATELY.
Lower the level of water to about one foot below the skimmer intake and return holes. Throughout the winter you must continually check this level, as it
must not reach the skimmer holes at any time during the winter.
During the winter the pool requires the use of an equalizer to allow for the expansion and contraction that occurs when ice is formed and to hold cover
up. This can be a product manufactured for this express purpose and is available at your swimming pool dealer.
The use of a winterizing agent will simplify the start up of your pool next season.
A cover designed for winter use is also recommended to keep pressure on the equalizer so it is forces into the water, keep dirt out, and at the same time,
serve as a safety cover.
If your skimmer is supplied with a winter plate and cap you must still follow the same steps as above. It is essential that no water be allowed to run down
the wall for any period of time. If your skimmer did not come with the winter plate it is available at a nominal charge at your dealer and is recommended.
