This section describes the procedure for the
installation and starting of the pump. It describes
how the work must be carried out and features
requiring special attention.
The installation and starting of the pump may
be carried out only by suitable approved

5.1 General
The pump should preferably be installed on a
concrete surface and screwed into place using
the holes of the base. The pump must be
installed in a dry location. If the pump is installed
in a damp location, adequate ventilation must be
ensured to prevent the formation of condensation.
Adequate ventilation must always be ensured to
allow proper operation of motor.
Sufficient space should be allowed for the
installation and maintenance of the pump. Note
the pump dimensions and allow at least 25cm
free space around the unit.
The pump should be installed as close as
possible to the pool for maximum performance.
