INSTALLING THE SKIMMER
INSTALLATION OF THE FILTRATION SYSTEM
FILLING THE POOL WITH WATER
• For protection and safety, all edges of the skimmer and return fitting windows must be covered by
vinyl tape or rust proofing paint.
• Follow the skimmer manufacturer’s instructions for skimmer installation.
ATTENTION: FOLLOW ALL SAFETY WARNINGS INCLUDED IN FILTRATION SYSTEM
INSTALLATION MANUAL.
• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installation of the filtration system. Once all of the hoses
are attached to the skimmer and return fitting, finish filling the pool.
• Before filling the pool with water, thoroughly check to see if there are any loose screws not
tightened during the pool frame installation process. Also check for holes or tears in the liner.
• Fill the pool until the water is halfway up the skimmer opening or a minimum of 6-in (15-cm) from
the top of the pool wall (see diagram 35). This will ensure water is entering the skimmer opening
and flowing into the filter system.
SAFETY WARNING!
To avoid pool collapse, never leave the pool empty without water!
The warranty does not cover damage to an empty pool.
Make sure pool waterline is
6-in (15-cm) below the top
of the pool wall.
