Pool Pump Suction Requirements

Pump suction is hazardous and can trap and drown or disembowel
bathers. Do not use or operate swimming pools, spas, or hot tubs if
a suction outlet cover is missing, broken, or loose.

Follow the guidelines

below for a pump installation which minimises risk to users of pools, spas, and
hot tubs.

Entrapment Protection

The pump suction system

must

provide protection against the hazard of

suction entrapment or hair entrapment/entanglement.

Suction Outlet Covers

All suction outlet covers must be maintained. They must be replaced if
cracked, broken, or missing.
See below for outlet cover certification requirements.
All suction outlets must have correctly installed, screw-fastened covers in
place.

Testing and Certification

Suction outlet covers must have been tested by a nationally recognised
testing laboratory and found to comply with the latest AS1926.3-2010
Standard or ASME/ANSI Specification for

Suction Fittings For Use in Swim-

ming Pools, Spas, Hot Tubs, and Whirlpool Bathtub Applications.
