For new construction, these custom-fabricated stainless steel suction niches and main drains are the appropriate alternative to open pipes.
- When designing new pool construction, ensure that every pump has no less than two suction outlets each, without exception. Local health codes should be consulted to determine flow rates through each outlet.
- Make certain that no drain in your pool is unprotected by either grates or anti-vortex covers. Retrofit covers for uncovered drains and inspect all covers regularly.
- Some gratings and drains degrade and loosen when exposed to pool chemicals and/or U.V. radiation. Replace any weakened gratings immediately with chemical and U.V. resistant covers.
- Acquaint yourself with local building and health codes, as well as the recommendations of the NSPI regarding pool drains. These guidelines are for general information only, and should not be used as a substitute for checking with your local health authorities.
- Our drain covers and grates provide protection to you and your patrons against bather entrapment. These covers and grates are suitable for new construction as well as retrofitting to existing main drains.
