PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
This product should be installed and serviced only by a qualified professional.
PUMP LOCATION
Locate pump as close to pool as practical and run suction lines as direct as possible to reduce friction loss.
Suction line diameter must equal or be larger than the discharge line diameter. Suction lines should have
continuous slope upward from lowest point in line. Joints must be tight (but not over-tightened).
Though the pump is designed for outdoor use, it is strongly advised to protect the electrical components from
the weather. Select a well-drained area, one that will not flood when it rains. Do NOT install pump in a damp
or non-ventilated location. Keep motor clean. Pump motors require free circulation of air for cooling.
PUMP MOUNTING
Install pump on a firm, level base or pad to meet all local and national codes. Fasten pump to base or pad with
screws or bolts to further reduce vibration and stress on pipe or hose joints. The base MUST be solid, level,
rigid, and vibration free.
PUMP MOUNT MUST:
• Allow pump inlet height to be as close to water level as possible.
• Allow use of short, direct suction pipe (to reduce friction losses).
• Allow for gate valves in suction and discharge piping.
• Be protected from excess moisture and flooding.
• Allow adequate access for servicing pump and piping.
• Incorporate a straight portion of pipe prior to pump inlet no less than (5) pipe diameters in length.
Hazardous Pressure. Pumps, filters, and other equipment/components of a swimming
pool filtration system operate under pressure. Incorrectly installed and/or improperly
tested filtration equipment and/or components may fail resulting in injury and/or property damage.
