WETDEK INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
The WetDek can be installed as a stand alone product or as a poolside feature. Each model requires
variations in installation. There is also a section of common installation requirements and a section for
optional additions that can be added to the system.
BACKYARD STAND ALONE MODEL
The stand alone version of the WetDek, shown in
FIGURE 1
, requires the installation of a dependent
pump and filtration system, as well as the placement of a 150 gallon reservoir. This is in addition to the
valve manifold, control box, and spray pad area that are required for all WetDeks.
Because the WetDek is based upon a
gravity drain,
the top of the reservoir must be
located at least 6 inches lower than the drain.
This means that the reservoir should either be
buried or placed downhill from the WetDek
surface.
The maximum change in height from
the WetDek surface to the standing level of
water in the reservoir is 5 feet
; if more height
is required contact S.R. Smith.
DO NOT HOOK
THE WETDEK UP TO A SUCTION RETURN.
1. The 150 Gallon Reservoir (10) has four
fittings that are pre-attached to the tank.
There are three 1 ½” female threaded
fittings and one 4” female threaded fitting.
The dimensions for the tank are as follows:
32” diameter, 51” height.
2. The 4” fitting is designated for the drain line.
3. The three 1 ½” fittings are in-line with each
other, and are located 90 degrees from the
4” drain line, as shown in
FIGURE 2
.
4. The lowest fitting is designated for the
suction line to the pump.
