85dB Horn at 10 Feet
This product has been designed to aid in the detection of unwanted intrusions into
unsupervised pools. POOLGUARD IS A SAFETY ALARM SYSTEM AND NOT A
LIFE SAVING DEVICE. "This device is not intended to replace any other safety
consideration - i.e., adult supervision, lifeguards, fences, gates, pool covers, locks, etc.,
and some devices may not detect gradual entry."

PLACEMENT IN YOUR POOL

FIGURE 1
UPRIGHT POSITION
Figure 2 illustrates locations best suited for detecting intrusions from any
area of the pool. If your pool is larger than 800 square feet, if you have
more than 2 return lines, any concerns about the size, or if you have
an irregular shaped pool or water features such as waterfalls, please call
customer service to clarify the recommended number of alarms and locations
for alarms: 1-800-242-7163. Poolguard Pool Alarms have been tested and
comply to the ASTM Standard Specifications for Residential Pool Alarms
ASTM F 2208, in a 16'x 32' pool. P001 -GUARD alarms can be used in pools
up to 20'x 40' or 800 square feet.

POOLGUARD automatically compensates for variations in pool levels
within the unit's operating range. The unit utilizes a sensing throat which
projects into the water and is designed to operate in most pools with an
in -wall skimmer. The sensing throat cannot be less than 2.5 inches, (See
Figure 3), and not more than 5.5 inches into the water, POOLGUARD
recommends that the sensing throat be approximately 4 inches in the water
POOLGUARD can be used with SOLAR BLANKETS on the pool.
POOLGUARD can also be used in spas.

POOLGUARD may not function properly h your pool's water level is not maintained within the required levels of your alarm.
Also, the unit may not operate effectively while certain types of automatic pool cleaners are in operation.
Some irregular shaped decks may not provide a level foundation for the
unit by the pool's edge. This minor problem can be overcome by
appropriately supporting the unit, (See Figure 3).
STABILIZING YOUR POOL ALARM
The Alarm Stabilizing Pin (ASP) is factory installed onto.your pool alarm.
Tools needed to install your alarm are: One 5/16" masonry drill bit that can
be found at your local hardware store, a drill, a pencil, a tape measure or yard
stick.
1. Position your pool alarm so that the sensing throat is in the water and
the ASP is touching the deck, (leave a small space no more than 3/8" between
the sensing throat and the top edge of your deck or coping), (See Figure 4).
2. Mark with a pencil the spot where you wish to drill the hole for the ASP.
3. With the 5/16" masonry drill bit, drill a hole 2 1/4" inches deep, as
straight as possible.

STABILIZING YOUR POOL ALARM (Continued)
4. Clean off the debris and install the alarm by placing the ASP into the
5/16'.'diameter by 2 1/4" deep hole.
5. Your Pool Alarm is now ready for use. If you have any questions or need
help with installation, please give us a call at 1-800-242-7163.
6. Be sure to keep the ASP hole clean from debris and dirt so that your
alarm will always lay flat on the pool deck when installed.
REMEMBER THAT THE POOL UNIT MUST BE REMOVED

TEST BEFORE USING
To ensure effectiveness, test POOLGUARD every time you place it into the
pool by performing the following procedure:
•POOLGUARD DOES NOT HAVE AN ON/OFF SWITCH
When the alarm is in the pool it is always in the ON position and
cannot be turned off. When the alarm is out of the pool it is always
in the OFF position.
•To test your alarm push an object of appropriate volume and weight off
the deck edge at the farthest location from the alarm. (A four (4) gallon
jug of water or 3 -one (1) gallon jugs of water tied together are ideal for
testing.) The alarm should sound when the water action caused by the
intrusion reaches the unit. It may take a few seconds for the alarm to
react to the water action.
