15. INSTALLING THE SKIMMER (SK)
Once the water of the swimming pool is +/- 5 cm under the skimmer hole, mark
the hole in the liner with a felt pen and cut the skimmer’s square with a sharp blade the
piece of marked square of liner (fig. 36).
Cover the “Fitting Thread” with Teflon and screw tightly the connecting screw
to the skimmer’s body. It’s important to put Teflon on all the connection threads to
ensure a good seal.
The excess of Teflon can be broken off.
To put the skimmer on, start by placing the rubber gaskets one on each side (fig.
37). Put the frame on the inside of the pool and insert a screw in the top central
hole in order to go through the
frame + rubber liner + the other rubber
skimmer’s body
, from the inside to the outside. Screw a little bit to hold it
to the skimmer’s body (Figs. 38 & 39).
Repetir esta operación en el agujero del marco central inferior, enroscar suavemente,
a continuación ir colocando los demás tornillos uno después de otro, siguiendo el
orden indicado, al final apretarlos firmemente.
Connect the end of the hose to the connection thread with a clamp. Fit the other end of
the hose to the inlet of the filter equipment and tighten with the help of a clamp.
Finally, place the basket inside the skimmer
and close the skimmer’s body with the cover.
To finish, fill the pool a little more than half of
the skimmer’s gate to get water inside and fill the
filter system.
16. MAINTENANCE OF THE WOOD
To keep the wood all the properties that have been applied in the manufacturing process (Autoclave and organic
solvent), we suggest you to use a brush to apply water varnish in order to protect the wood from the weather
changes (not included in the kit).
We recommend to repeat the process at least once a year, to extend the life and improve the appearance of the
wood.
17. MAINTENANCE OF THE SWIMMING POOL
- WATER MAINTENANCE
All swimming pools need chemical treatment to maintain the water disinfected and crystal clear. Consult your chemical
products supplier to determine those that are best for your needs. Water treatment procedure is not the same in all regions,
because it depends on the water quality in each region.
WARNING: An incorrect
treatment may cause water pollution that produces infections, poisonings and diseases.
