Rev.00–16/10/20
PHASE 1 –Selecting a suitable site
Carefully select the site for your new pool. This is the most important decision you will have to make to ensure the safety
and success of your pool construction. An incorrect site could cause problems in the future that may cause in jury, death or
financial loss.
Read carefully the check list set out below when selecting your site.
TOOLS REQUIRED
•Phillips head screw driver
•Small shifter
•Clothes pegs
•Sharp knife
•Spirit level
•Site excavation tools
•Protective gloves
•Pre-cast cement block
ACCEPTABLE
Flat, level, firm and dry ground with easy access to all sides of the pool exposed to direct sunlight, preferably in the morning.
Safe access to electricity for running the filter pump and other pool accessories. Access to main water source.
Protection from wind.
NOT ACCEPTABLE
•sloping ground
•concrete, asphalt, sandy gravel and swampy ground
•close to wooden construction e.g. pergola’s and
decking
•next to deciduous or leafy trees
•over-head wires and clothes line
•drains, electric wires or gas pipelines underneath
the site
•poor or little drainage or high flood risk locations
•high wind conditions

PHASE 2 –Pool setup
I. Ground preparation
The preparation of the ground is the most important step in the installation of the pool.
Diagram 1
(Diagram 1)

Rev.00–16/10/20
II. Marking the site
1. Mark the center of the site and drive a stake or screw driver into the soil (see diagram 2).
Diagram 2
2. Tie a piece of string onto the stick. At the other end of the string, tie a funnel. The distance between the stick and the
funnel should be 150 mm more than the radius of the pool (see diagram 3).
Diagram 3
3. Place flour or chalk dust into the funnel and draw a circle around the stake. If the smallest diameter is 3600 mm, then
the 2 circles should be 3900 mm in diameter (see diagram 4).

Rev.00–16/10/20
III. Levelling the area
WARNING
Levelling is extremely important: take as much time as possible to work out a site that is completely firm and levelled. Use
a carpenter’s level and straight edge to ensure that the site is completely level, flat and firm (see diagram 5). The pool
contains a huge amount of water and thousands of kilos of weight. Should the pool collapse due to unlevelled ground, it
could cause a lot of damage to property and even human injury or death!
Diagram 5
Remove the higher ground rather than filling the low laying ground (see diagram 6).
WARNING
Always remove grass and stones within the circle. Use ground sheet to ensure that the grass doesn’t penetrate the pool liner
and cause damage.
Diagram 6
Spread a light layer of fine brick layers sand over the foundation area. Level this layer evenly (see diagram 7) . Once the site
has been cleared and levelled, it is time to start assembling the frame assembly.

WHITE POOL 910 - 8011014
Place the 1st assembled frame upright across the width of the pool at a point 3070 mm from the end of the cleared area.
Place the 2nd and the remaining assembled frames at a point 1480 mm from the center line of the adjacent assembled frame (see
diagram 14).
Note: 1480 mm measurements are taken from the center of the L supports.
Diagram 14
To check the alignment of the assembled frames, position string line along the back of the assembled frames (the back of the L
support) about 200 mm above the ground between two steel pegs, position A and B as shown in diagram 15. If the L Supports are
not correctly aligned, they need to be tapped back or forward until the back of each L Support is correctly aligned with the string
line.
Diagram 15
Once the steps have been completed you need to check the diagonal measurements of the pool frame. Measure the two intersecting
axes to ensure that the two straight sections are parallel. The measurements of the points A to D and B to C must be equal (see
diagram 16).

Rev.00–16/10/20
When all the assembled frames are in the correct position, spray paint a line on either side of each assembled frame across the
pool. This is to mark out the areas to be excavated. When these areas have been marked out, the assembled frames can be removed
from the site.
The marked areas should be excavated to a depth of 150 x 150 mm wide across the pool from one side to the other with a length
250 mm x depth 150 mm excavation at each end for the positioning of the pre-cast concrete blocks.
Note:
•If using cement mix instead of concrete blocks, the cement mix is put in place after the assembled frames have been
positioned and leveled.
•Concrete pads: the use of concrete blocks or concrete mix at each end of the assembled frame is critical as it
distributes the load carried by the frames evenly into the soil below. Not using concrete pads will result in the frame
sinking into the ground and disturbing the level of your pool.
•Do not use house bricks or Besser blocks.
•Backfill all excavated area with 8 to 1 sand and cement mix.
•Top of the horizontal section of L supports and ground should be level.
Note: if using cement mix instead of concrete blocks the cement mix is put in place after the assembled frames have been positioned
and leveled.

V. Installing assembled frames
The assembled frames can now be positioned back in to the excavated areas. Using the existing string line, ensure the L
supports side of the pool are perfectly aligned, if not, make the necessary adjustments. Care must be taken to ensure the
measure between the centers. It is advisable to hold the posts into position using steel pegs. Frames installed in such a way
that no horizontal part of the L support is situated higher that the surrounding ground level.
The levelling of the assembled frame is an important exercise that must be done precisely and repeatedly until correct.
When all the assembled frames have been positioned and levelled you need to recheck and ensure that the back of the L supports
are all in line and the diagonal measurements of the assembled frames are all correct and equal.
Before proceeding check the measurements for the width of the pool between the inside of the assembled frames should be as per
table below. The width measurements A can have a variance of + or –5mm.
If all of the measurements and levels are correct you can now proceed with the backfill of the channels across the pool and cement
mix at the end of the channels.
When positioning the L Supports for your pool, it is important that the supports are supported and retained in a perpendicular
position while the excavation is being packed.
A simple and effective way to achieve this is to drive a star picket into the ground at the rear of the L support, then temporarily
attach the L support to the star picket with some duct tape. This will hold the post vertical while the cement and backfill is put into
place.
Note: top of the horizontal L supports and ground should be level.

VIII. Fixing the pool wall
Put the pool wall on a ground cloth, cardboard or a piece of ply wood (see diagram 19). This is to protect the levelled ground while
installation of pool wall is taking place. Make sure the square window (for skimmer) is on the upward side.
It is advisable to wear protective gloves when handling the metal wall.
Diagram 19 Diagram 20
You should decide where the skimmer and filtration system should be placed. The opening end of the pool wall closest to the
square window should be placed on the closest metal piece to your selected location for the electric supply of the filtration system.
The pool wall end should be resting in the bottom rail (see diagram 20). Make sure that this location is not in a windward position.
Square window should be in the upward position.
Diagram 21
Then uncoil the whole pool wall onto the ground rail. Join the 2 ends of the pool wall together. Line up the screw holes. If you
could not line up the holes, then adjust the gap distance of the 2 ends of bottom rails (see diagram 21).
