The equipment base must be level, stable, and positioned no greater than 20m (pipe distance) from the pool for efficient operation. A concrete slab or paved area is recommended, with a minimum size of 1200mm x 900mm or 2400mm x 900mm if a heat pump is selected. Ensure the base is elevated slightly to prevent water pooling during rain and has adequate drainage nearby.
How do I manage groundwater for in-ground installation?
Install a 65mm continuous slotted AG pipe connected to a 100mm standpipe to monitor groundwater levels. Ensure groundwater does not exceed 500mm above the pool
