INSTALLATION GUIDE
STRATCO POOL PUMP FILTER STORAGE SHED
INSTALLATION GUIDE
BEFORE YOU START
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
To ensure that the installation and erection of your Pool Pump Filter Storage Shed proceeds smoothly you should confirm that all the
components and materials listed on the components section have been supplied. Carefully read this installation guide to familiarise
yourself with all the steps involved and ensure that you have the correct tools and equipment for the job.
Pool Pump Filter Storage Sheds must be securely bolted to a permanent concrete base with sufficient masonry anchors securing all
four corners of the shed to prevent wind uplift.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1. It is essential to clear and level the site prior to assembling your Pool Pump Filter Storage Shed.
2. Brush off any metal filings as you go. Loose metal filings can cause premature corrosion.
3. Note there are different types and colours of screws. Ensure that the right type and colour screw is being used at each location.
4. Stability and performance of the shed relies on the door being closed during high wind events.
5. Do not traverse the roof of the Pool Pump Filter Storage Shed .
6. Use heavy gloves when handling steel sheeting and flashings and never attempt to install a shed in windy conditions.
