CHOOSE THE CORRECT LOCATION
The surface chosen to install the pool must respect the following
technical characteristics:
1. Because of the combined weight of the water inside the pool and
the pool users, it is extremely important that the surface chosen to
install the pool is capable of uniformly supporting the total weight
for the entire time the pool is installed. When choosing the surface,
take into consideration that water may come out of the pool when
in use or in the rain. If the water softens the surface, it may lose its
capability to support the pool weight.
2. Check regularly the position of the vertical legs and the U-supports.
They must be on the same level as the bottom of the pool at all
times. If the vertical leg or the U-support starts to sink into the
ground, drain the water immediately to avoid the pool collapsing
due to the uneven loading on the frame structure. Change the
location of the pool or modify the surface material.
3. We recommend positioning the pool away from any objects
children could use to climb into the pool.
4. Position the pool near an adequate drainage system to deal with
overflow or to discharge the pool.
5. The surface must be flat and smooth. If the surface is inclined or
uneven, it can create an unbalanced loading on the structure of the
pool. This situation can damage the welding point of the liner and
bend the frame. In the worst cases, the pool can collapse, causing
serious personal injury and/or damage to personal property.
6. The selected surface must be clear of any type of object. Due to
the weight of the water, any object under the pool could damage or
perforate the bottom of the pool.
7. The selected surface must be clear of aggressive plants and weed
species. Those types of strong vegetation could grow through the
liner and create water leakage. The grass or other vegetation that
may cause odor or slime to develop have to be eliminated from the
set-up location.
8. The selected location must not have overhead power lines or trees.
Be sure the location does not contain underground utility pipes,
lines or cables of any kind.
9. The selected position must be far from house entrance. Do not
position any equipment or other furniture around the pool. The
water that comes out of the pool during the use or due to a faulty
product can damage the furniture inside the house or surrounding
the pool.
10. The selected surface must be flat and without holes that can
damage the material of the liner.
Follow the important instructions above to choose the correct surface
and location to set up your pool. Damaged parts of the pool, due to the
fact that the set-up surface and location does not match the
instructions, will not be considered as manufacture defect and will
avoid the warranty and any service claims.
Suggested set-up surfaces:
grass, ground, concrete, and all other
surfaces that respect the above set-up conditions.
Not suggested surfaces:
mud, sand, gravel, deck, balcony, driveway,
platform, soft/loose soil or other surface that does not meet the above
set-up conditions.
NOTE:
Check with your local city council for by-laws relating to
6
fencing, barriers, lighting and safety requirements and ensure you
comply with all laws.
NOTE:
If have a filter pump, refer to the pump’s manual for
instructions.
NOTE:
The ladder must match the pool size and should be used only
for entering and exiting the pool. It is forbidden to exceed the permitted
payload of the ladder. Check regularly if the ladder is properly
assembled.
INSTALLATION
Installation usually takes approximately 10-20 minutes with 2-3 people
excluding earthworks and filling.
Assembly of the Frame Pool can be completed without tools.
To lengthen the life of your pool, it is important to sprinkle the top rail
with the Talcum Powder before assembly. Talcum Powder is not
included and easily available in the market.
NOTE:
It is important to assemble pool in the order shown below.
Install your pools according to the following illustrations.
ATTENTION:
Do not drag the pool on the ground in order to avoid
damaging the liner on sharp objects. Bestway will not be responsible
for damage caused to the pool due to mishandling or failure to follow
these instructions.

FILLING POOL WITH WATER
ATTENTION:
Do not leave pool unattended while filling with water.
1. Fill pool to drain valve.
STOP
2. Turn water off. Check that the water is not collecting on any side to
ensure the pool is level. If pool is not level, drain water and re-level
ground by digging out. Never attempt to move the pool with water in
it, serious personal injury or damage to the pool may result.
NOTE:
Your pool may contain a great deal of pressure. If your pool
has any bulge or uneven side then the pool is not level, the sides
may burst and the water may discharge suddenly causing serious
personal injury and/or damage to property.
3. If level, fill pool to lowest pump valve.
STOP
4. Turn water off. Check valves for secure fit.
5. Fill the pool until the water reaches the welding line located
4cm-12cm (1.6''-4.7'') from the top of the pool.
DO NOT OVERFILL
as this could cause the pool to collapse. In times of heavy rainfall
you may need to empty some of the water to ensure the level is
correct.
6. Check pool for any leaks at valves or seams, check any evident
water loss. Do not add chemicals until this has been done.

ATTENTION:
Do not use pump when pool is in use.
During the season of use of the swimming pool, the filtration system
must be necessarily put into service every day, enough for a long time
to assure at least a complete renewal of the volume of water.
POOL MAINTENANCE
Warning:
If you do not adhere to the maintenance guidelines covered
herein, your health might be at risk, especially that of children. Pool
water treatment is essential for the safety of the users. Using
chemicals inappropriately will cause property damage and personal
injury.
NOTE:
The pump is used to circulate the water and to filter small
particles. In order to keep your pool water clean and hygienic, you
must also add chemicals.
1. It is recommended not to fill the pool with catchment water, drilling
water, or drainage well water: these waters generally contain
polluted organic substances including nitrates and phosphates.
Filling pools with water from the public network is advised.
2. Always keep your pool clean and apply the correct pool chemicals.
Unsanitary water is a serious health hazard. It is recommended to
use disinfectant, flocculant, acid or alkali chemicals to treat your
pool.
3. Clean the PVC liner regularly with non-abrasive brushes or a pool
vacuum cleaner.
4. Throughout the season, the water filtration system must run long
enough each day to clean the entire volume of water in the pool.
5. Check the filter cartridge (or sand in a sand filter) regularly and
replace dirty cartridges (or sand).
6. Regularly check the screws, bolts and all the metal parts for rust.
Replace if necessary.
7. If it rains, check that the water level is not higher than the specified
level. If water exceeds the specified levels, drain the pool to the
specified level.
8. Do not use the pump when the pool is in use.
9. Cover the pool when not in use.
10. For pool water treatment, the pH value is very important.
ATTENTION:
Do not leave the drained pool outside.
The following parameters ensure good quality water
