Water temperature in excess of 100
°
F (37.7
°
C) may be hazardous to your
health. Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia.
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a
level several degrees above normal body temperature of 98.6
°
F (37
°
C.).
Effects of hyperthermia include: (1) Unawareness of impending danger. (2)
Failure to perceive heat. (3) Failure to recognize the need to leave the spa. (4)
Physical inability to exit the spa. (5) Fetal damage in pregnant women. (6)
Unconsciousness resulting in danger of drowning. The use of alcohol, drugs,
or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs
and spas.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use or operate this
equipment.
When setting up pool water turnovers or flow rates, the operator must consider
local codes governing turnover as well as disinfectant feed ratios.
If this pump is intended for use in other than single-family dwellings, a clearly
labeled emergency switch shall be provided as part of the installation. The switch shall be
readily accessible to the occupants and shall be installed at least 5 feet (1.52 m) away,
adjacent to and within sight of this pump.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR ELECTROCUTION:
PUMPS REQUIRE HIGH VOLTAGE WHICH CAN SHOCK, BURN, OR
CAUSE DEATH. Before working on pump
always disconnect power to the
pool pump at the circuit breaker before servicing the pump. Failure to do so
could result in death or serious injury to service person, pool users or others
due to electric shock.
Pumps improperly sized or installed or used in applications other than for
which the pump was intended can result in serious personal injury or death. These risks may
include but not be limited to electric shock, fire, flooding, suction entrapment or serious injury
or property damage caused by a structural failure of the pump or other system component.
Never exceed the maximum stated pump flow rating.Only use a pumping
system rated for the corresponding flow. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN HAIR OR
BODY ENTRAPMENT WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. If in
doubt about the rating of your system, consult a qualified pool service professional.
Pumps are not a substitute for properly installed and secured pool drain covers.
An ANSI/ASME A112.19.8 approved anti-entrapment drain cover must be used for each drain.
Pools and spas should utilize a minimum of two drains per pump. Regularly inspect all covers
for cracks, damage and advanced weathering. If a cover becomes loose, cracked, damaged,
broken or is missing, close the pool or spa immediately, shut off the pump, post a notice and
keep the pool or spa closed until an appropriate VGB 2008 certified cover is properly installed.
Covers deteriorate over time due to exposure to sunlight and pool chemicals. This cover must
be replaced within seven (7) years from installation (or earlier if the cover becomes damaged
in any way).
