LOOP-LOC Addresses Important Instructions for Using an Automatic Pump on Solid Pool Covers Without Drains
HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Oct. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- LOOP-LOC, safety pool cover company that services New Jersey, addresses important instructions for using an automatic pump on solid pool covers without drains.
The ASTM Performance Specification mandates that no pool cover can be called a safety cover if it does not provide for water removal. LOOP-LOC supplies an automatic cover pump with its solid covers to remove water that accumulates on the cover. Water can accumulate as a result of rain and/or melting snow, and may also seep up through the material seams during the winter months when snow and ice force the cover to come into contact with the pool water.
If this water is left unchecked, it is highly likely that a substantial amount of pool water may be pumped out of the pool. Once the cover begins to exceed the depressed level of 16 inches below the deck, excess stress is placed on the cover, hardware, pool, coping, and deck. At this point, cover/hardware failure is possible—which will void the cover warranty. LOOP-LOC is not responsible for any damage that may occur due to this condition. Once this condition occurs, it is necessary to correct the pool's water level immediately. By removing accumulated snow from the skimmer box, you will be able to check to see if the water levels have dropped and if additional water needs to be added into the swimming pool. Contact a pool professional immediately if you are uncertain about the condition of your cover.
When snow and ice accumulates—and remains—on the solid cover it is recommended to disconnect the pump if it will be frozen in ice for an extended period. It is important to reconnect the pump immediately once the snow and ice begin to melt. When leaving your home unattended for extended periods of time, you should have your swimming pool professional periodically check your water levels. If that is not possible, engage a friend or neighbor to check on and fix the above conditions.
