Anchor Installation: New Construction or Retro-Fit
You may need to saw cut and remove a portion of an existing pool deck in order to achieve the 11 inch depth
footing requirement. Aqua Creek does NOT recommend a core drill installation for this lift.
To properly install this anchor, you will need to have a concrete footing comprised of 2500 psi concrete that is
11 inches deep and 4 feet - 4 inches square and reinforced with rebar. Refer to Figures A and B below.
If cutting into an existing pool deck, the rebar must be drilled and secured to the surrounding pool deck on
three sides (do not secure into bond beam). The centerline of the anchor should be no less than 9 inches from
the edge of the footing.
NOTE: The anchor setback will vary depending on deck application. 16 inch setback is the minimum for ADA
compliance however, given a typical 1 foot bond beam and the fact that the anchor should be no closer than 9
inches to the edge of your footing, 21 inches may be the closest you can achieve.
1. Determine the best location for the anchor and set the anchor in place. You may use a small mass of wet
concrete to set the anchor in place. Use a level and string lines to make sure the anchor is perpendicular
and will be fl ush with the top of the fi nished deck surface.
2. Bond the anchor according to local code requirements using the bonding lug on the bottom of the anchor.
Reference the National Electric Code (NEC) Article 680.26 for specifi cs on bonding.
3.
Pour the concrete so that the top of the anchor will be fl ush with the FINISHED pool deck surface.
4. Once the concrete has cured, the lift can be put into place.
