WARNING – Suction Entrapment Hazard.
Suction in suction outlets and/or suction outlet covers which are damaged, broken, cracked, missing,
or unsecured can cause severe injury or death due to the following entrapment hazards:
Hair Entrapment- Hair becomes knotted or snagged in an outlet cover.
Limb Entrapment- A limb sucked or inserted into an opening of a circulation outlet with a broken or
missing cover in the pool resulting in a mechanical bind or swelling
Body Suction Entrapment- Suction applied to a large portion of the body or limbs resulting in an
entrapment.
Evisceration/ Disembowelment Entrapment- Suction applied directly to the intestines through an
unprotected sump or suction outlet with a missing or broken cover.
Mechanical Entrapment- Potential for jewelry, swimsuit, hair decorations, finger, toe or knuckle to
be caught in an opening of an outlet or cover.
To Reduce the risk of Entrapment Hazards:
o A minimum of two functioning suction outlets per pump must be installed.
Suction outlets in the same plane (i.e. floor or wall), must be installed a
minimum of three feet (3’) [.91 meter] apart, as measured from suction pipe
center to suction pipe center. (See Diagram 1. If suction outlets are to be located
closer then three feet (3’) [.91 meter] apart, they shall be located in different
planes (i.e., one on the bottom, and one on the vertical wall, or one on each of
two separate vertical walls.) (See Diagram 2)
o Dual suction fittings shall be placed in such locations and distances to avoid “dual blockage” by a
user.
o Dual suction fittings shall not be located on seating areas or on the backrest for such seating areas.
o The maximum system flow rate shall not exceed the flow rating of any listed (per ASME/ANSI
A112.19.8M-1987, ASME A112.19.8-2007, APSP-7) suction outlet cover installed.
o Keep suction outlet components clear of debris, such as leaves, dirt, hair, paper and other material.
o Never use a Pool or Spa if any suction outlet component is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not
securely attached.
o Prior to each use of the swimming pool and/or spa, observe and replace damaged, broken, cracked,
missing, or not securely attached suction outlet components immediately.
o Remove pressure test plugs and/or plugs used in winterization of the pool/spa from the suction outlets.
o Two or more suction outlets per pump should be installed in accordance with latest APSP Standards
and CPSC guidelines. Follow all National, State, and Local codes applicable.
o Multiple layers of protection are available including installation of a vent pipe system, a gravity flow
system, or a vacuum release system.
o Suction outlet components have a finite life, the cover/grate should be inspected frequently and
replaced at least every seven years or if found to be damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not
securely attached.
o Do not exceed maximum flow rate stated on suction fitting.
o Only replace a pump with one with a similar flow curve, avoid a pump with a higher horsepower
rating.

 RECOMMENDED SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS:
WGX1048E Suction Outlet Covers are rated for Floor Only at 125 GPM
WG1048EW Suction Outlet Covers are rated for Wall or Floor at 72 GPM
In the event of one suction outlet being blocked, the remaining suction outlets serving that system shall have a
flow rating capable of the full flow of the pump(s) for the specific suction system.
Example: In the System shown in Diagram 1, two (2) “Floor Only” suction outlet covers are selected and mounted.
These covers are individually rated for 125 GPM. For a desired flow rate through the pump of 100 GPM, a minimum
pipe size from the Chart 1 is selected at 3”. At the desired flow of 100 GPM one cover could be partially blocked
and the other suction outlet flow would be below the rated 125 GPM of the “Floor” mounted suction outlet cover.
Since there are two outlets flowing in normal operation, and the allowable velocity in the interconnecting piping is
only 3ft/sec, the same pipe size is required in the interconnecting piping.
Example: In the System shown in Diagram 2, one (1) “Floor Only” suction outlet cover, rated at 125 GPM, and one (1)
“Wall or Floor” suction outlet cover, rated at 72 GPM are selected and mounted. For a desired flow rate through the
pump of 50 GPM, a minimum pipe size from the Chart 1 is selected at 2”. At the desired flow of 50 GPM either
cover could be totally blocked and the other suction outlet flow would be below the rated 72 GPM of the wall
mounted suction outlet cover. Note: Flow may be limited by entrapping force in dual suction systems.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: - Use a #2 Philips head Screwdriver.
NOTICE: When installing WG1030AVPAK2 refer to ASME A112.19.8-2007 for the proper instructions on
how to construct the field-fabricated sump. Figure 2 is an illustration of some of the requirements.
Suction outlets for a pool with a vinyl liner and for fiberglass pools are provided with a WG1048B mounting
ring and two (2) gaskets. The gaskets should be placed such that they sandwich the liner or fiberglass, that is,
one gasket on each side. The ring (WG1048B) is attached to the suction outlet by eight (8) screws that pass
through both gaskets and the liner. See diagram below.
Suction outlets for a concrete or gunite pools are
designed to be plastered with the top surface flush
to the pool surface. An Adjustable Collar
WG1051X may be used to aid in obtaining the
desired configuration.
Two screws MUST be used to secure the cover to
the suction outlet. USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE
REPLACEMENT PARTS INCLUDING THE SCREWS.
For installations utilizing a hydrostatic relief valve
(SP1056), using a collector tube (SP1055) will maintain a clear path to the hydrostatic valve. At least one
hydrostatic relief valve in a set of suction outlets will allow hydrostatic uplift pressure caused by ground water
to be relieved into the pool or spa.
