Your pool may be subject to premature wear and tear if not properly maintained. This could lead to structural failure of the pool, resulting in the release of large quantities of water, causing damage, injury and even death. Before installing your pool, it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with your local building code, zoning regulations and electrical code, and determine whether a building permit or electrical work is required. Your local bylaws may require that your pool be installed within certain setbacks, that you install a fence or other device, or that you comply with other specific requirements..
\n
\nA WARNING : All components such as the filtration system, pumps and water heater must be installed in such a way that they cannot be used by anyone to enter the pool, which could cause them serious injury and even death.<\/strong>
\n
\nWe are not responsible for incorrect installation of your pool. We are not affiliated with any pool installer and assume no responsibility for damage resulting from improper installation by the purchaser or a professional installer. The purchaser must supervise the installation of the pool to ensure that installation methods are in accordance with the installation manual included with your pool. Stickers \u00abDO NOT DIVE DO NOT JUMP<\/strong>\u00bb and \u00abPREVENT DROWNING<\/strong>\u00bb are supplied with your pool. They must be affixed to the inside wall of your pool, above the water level. Anyone entering the pool should be able to see these stickers. If you need additional stickers, you can order them by filling out the Contact Us form on the Contact Us page.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

For your own protection and the safety of others, we recommend that rescue equipment be accessible at all times. We recommend that you purchase the following equipment:\n

\nA light, strong, rigid pole at least 4 meters long, or a rope at least 0.6 cm in diameter and at least one and a half (1.5x) times the width or diameter of your pool. The rope must be securely attached to a Coast Guard-approved buoy with an outside diameter of approximately 40 cm.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Although we don't manufacture ladders, the proper use of a ladder is part of the safety measures involved in using your pool. ANSI standards require all pools to be equipped with a fixed, compliant pool ladder for entering and exiting the pool. The buyer must follow the pool ladder manufacturer's installation instructions.\n

\nPlease observe the following rules when using your ladder:\n

\n

    \n
  • One person at a time<\/li>\n
  • Swimmers must face the ladder when entering or exiting the pool.<\/li>\n
  • Do not dive or jump from ladders or decks<\/li>\n
  • Check every bolt regularly to ensure safety<\/li>\n
  • Inform other bathers of the rules for using the ladder<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
