Pro Swim Unit Installation
On the inside of the pool, thread the sacrificial 3/8" (9,5mm) steel (with rubber washer) and bolt into the
hex coupling through the hole that was previously drilled in the steel wall. Tighten the bolt to secure the
assembly (Fig 4.9).
Fig. 4.9
The location of the Hydraulic Power Unit should be determined at this point in the installation. Unroll
lengths of 1-1/2" (38mm) flexible PVC pipe from the back of the wall mount bracket to the Power Unit.
Any bends in the flexible pipe MUST be gradual sweeps and not sharp to allow the hydraulic hoses to easi-
ly be fed through each conduit.
If the Hydraulic Power Unit is within 25' (7,6m) of the pool: Each length of flexible pipe should exit the
ground within 4' (1,2m) of the Power Unit. Approximately 4' (1,2m) of hydraulic hose is required to make
the hydraulic connections at the Power Unit.
If the Hydraulic Power Unit is more than 25' (7,6m) away from pool: 25' (7,6m) of flexible pipe, a
junction box, and an additional length of flexible pipe MUST be employed. It is at the junction box where
a step up to a larger diameter hydraulic hose occurs to reduce pressure loss and a potential reduction in per-
formance. In this case, the length of flexible pipe between the wall mount bracket and junction box MUST
be 24' 6" (7,5m). This will allow the hydraulic hoses to terminate just inside the junction box. An additional
length of flexible pipe coming out of the junction box should exit the ground within 4' (1,2m) of the Power
Unit. See Section 5: Junction Box for detailed information.
Apply Teflon thread sealant to the threads of the 1-1/2" (38mm) MPT x FSLIP adapters and thread them
into the thru-wall fittings on the backside of the wall mount bracket. Glue the lengths of flexible pipe into
the adapters (Fig 4.10).
