New Drain Covers
What is with the New Drain Covers?
Maybe you have noticed that each pool now has new drain covers.
These drain covers can be a hassle. There have been many complaints about the raised edges.
Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act.
15 USC 8001
On December 19, 2007, Congress passed a new law regulating changes in pool operations including a new standard for pool drain covers.
The law went into effect near the end of 2008.
All pools must have an unblockable drain. These drains must comply with the ASME/ANSI A112.19.8 performance standard and must be installed by a specially-certified technician.
Unblockable Drain
An unblockable drain is a drain of any size and shape that a human body cannot sufficiently block to create a suction entrapment hazard.
These new drains covers were recently installed. The raised edges are designed to prevent entrapment and injury from suction.
From 1990-2004, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has reports of 74 incidents involving bodypart entrapment. Of those 74 reports, 13 people died and two were disemboweled.
The new drain covers are designed to prevent serious injury. They can be a trip hazard, so please watch your toes.
If you have any questions, please ask the Headguard.
