Winter and Long-Term Storage
•
WARNING
!
DO NOT
let your children stand at outlet and face the water outlet during the drainage. The water current may sweep children away.
•
WARNING
! Pool should be stored in a cool and dry place, with no sharp objects around it, and no heavy objects lying above, which may cause
damage to the pool.
•
Step 1. If you have a filter pump, make sure that the electricity source to the filter pump has been disconnected.
•
Step 2. Check to ensure that the outlet plug is firmly inserted on the inside of the pool.
• Step 3. Attach your garden hose to the drainage valve connector, and placing the other end of the hose in an area where the water can drain
safely, such as a storm drain or street gutter. Remember that because water always finds its own level, the end of the hose must be lower in
elevation than the pool to ensure complete drainage.
•
Step 4. If you have a filter pump, insert the stopper into the inlet and outlet fixtures, on the inside of the pool, and then disconnect the filter pump
hoses.
• Step 5. Attach the drainage valve connector to the drain outlet by turning connector in a clockwise direction.
• Step 6. Open the outlet plug on the inside of the pool and the water will begin to drain immediately.
•
Step 7. Disconnect the hose and drainage valve connector when finished.
• Step 8. Replace the outlet plug on the inside of the pool.
• Step 9. Be sure that the pool liner is completely dry before folding the pool for long-term storage. Leaving the pool exposed to sunlight for a few
hours will clean and speed the drying process and make it easier to fold the pool for storage. (Never attempt to fold or stow a pool that is not
completely dry as this could lead to a proliferation of mould or mildew build-up during the time the pool is in storage.)
• Step 10. Remember, proper off-season storage is critical to protect your investment in your pool (especially in winter). Once drained and dry,
your pool should be carefully folded and wrapped in a ground cloth (if available) or other similar protective tarp - like material. The pool and all
applicable accessories such as the pump, cover, ground cloth, ladder, hoses, clamps, and hardware should be kept together and stored indoors, in
a reasonably warm, dry and weatherproof location.
Folding Instruction
• Before folding, it’s better to dry all parts of the pool completely by lying them in the sun for one hour or so.(
