Main drain selection
When choosing sump (main drain) size always assume that total flow may be directed to the plant room via the sump(s) – sump size should be chosen accordingly. In normal conditions flow will be divided between surface draw-off and sump(s) in ratio: 70% Surface/30% sump for skimmer type pools or 50% Surface/50% sump for deck level pools.
HD33 – Main Drain
Current regulations state that every pool must have at least two main drains. Therefore, at least one main drain on every pool will need the bottom port sealed off – the Certikin main drain body has a knock-out blanking plate in the bottom port to save you time and money on site.
Main Drains
On commercial or shallow pool applications stainless steel main drain grilles must be used – main drains must be arranged so that there is no risk of bathers being drawn towards them or entrapped. Regulations state that on all installations a minimum of 2 x main drains must be installed 2 metres apart.
