WARNING

keep your Pool, Spa, or Hot Tub Safe and Free from
Entrapment Risk:
 Have your pool inspected by a licensed industry
professional during initial installation.
 There is no backup for a broken, missing or
inadequate cover. Replace any broken, missing
or non- compliant covers with covers marked:
VGB2008,” “ASME/ANSI A112.19.8-2007,” or
covers showing the swimmer logo.
 Pools or spas with a single main drain require
additional protection. Options include:
• Eliminating the drain or reversing the ow
Adding a second, properly spaced outlet
Installing an SVRS (Safety Vacuum Release System).
• Installing an automatic pump shut-off system
• Installing a suction- limiting vent system
Adding a gravity drainage system
 Please check with your individual municipality
to ensure proper compliance.
