Water temperature in excess of
100° F (37.7° C) may be hazardous to your health. Prolonged
immersion in hot water may induce hypothermia. Hypothermia occurs when the internal temperature of
the body reaches a level several degrees above normal body temperature of 98.6° F (37° C.). Effects
of hypothermia include: (1) Unawareness of impending danger. (2) Failure to perceive heat. (3) Failure
to recognize the need to leave the spa. (4) Physical inability to exit the spa. (5) Fetal damage in
pregnant women. (6) Unconsciousness resulting in danger of drowning. The use of alcohol, drugs, or
medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hypothermia in hot tubs and spas.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use or operate this equipment.
When setting up pool water turnovers or flow rates, the operator must consider local codes governing turnover as well
as disinfectant feed ratios.
If this pump is intended for use in other than single-family dwellings, a clearly labeled emergency switch shall be
provided as part of the installation. The switch shall be readily accessible to the occupants and shall be installed at
least 5 feet (1.52 m) away, adjacent to and within sight of this pump.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR ELECTROCU
TION:
PUMPS REQUIRE HIGH VOLTAGE
WHICH CAN SHOCK, BURN, OR CAUSE DEATH. Before
working on pump, always disconnect power to the pool pump at the circuit breaker before servicing the
pump. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury to service person, pool users or others
due to electric shock.
Pumps improperly sized or installed or used in applications other than for which the pump was intended can result in
serious personal injury or death. These risks may include but not be limited to electric shock, fire, flooding, suction
entrapment or serious injury or property damage caused by a structural failure of the pump or other system
component.
Never exceed the maximum stated pump flow rating. Only use a pumping system rated for the corresponding flow.
FAILURE TO DO SO
CAN RESULT IN HAIR OR BODY ENTRAPMENT WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH. If in doubt about the rating of your system, consult a qualified pool service professional.
Pumps are not a substitute for properly installed and secured pool drain covers. An ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 approved
anti-entrapment drain cover must be used for each drain. Pools and spas should utilize a minimum of two drains per
pump. Regularly inspect all covers for cracks, damage and advanced weathering. If a cover becomes loose, cracked,
damaged, broken or is missing, close the pool or spa immediately, shut off the pump, post a notice and keep the pool
or spa closed until an appropriate VGB 2008 certified cover is properly installed. Covers deteriorate over time due to
exposure to sunlight and pool chemicals. This cover must be replaced within seven (7) years from installation (or
earlier if the cover becomes damaged in any way).
