Waterway is a trusted maker of filter parts, systems, fittings, robotic cleaners, drain covers and even frames. You should remember that there are regulations in installing these drain covers and frames. The State Board of Health passed rules in October 2004 that set minimum protections for single main drains, requiring all pools to install an emergency manual shut-off switch and alarm.

Another thing to remember about the drain covers and frames is that they should be compliant with the Safety Vacuum Release System (SVRS) requirement which should work on the principle of detecting a blocked suction outlet and automatically releasing the entrapping suction and/or shutting off the recirculation pump.

Regardless of the promises offered by Waterway, standard wear and tear issues will soon render these drain covers and frames unusable. You can prevent that by considering the repair parts you can find in this category as the genuine replacements you will need to get them right back up running again.

The first component in this category you may soon need replacing is the: 640-2319-DKG Waterway Anti-Vortex Cover & Frame Main Drain. To make sure that your safety is ensured, you should be sure that the SVRS that uses this component must be tested, certified and listed as conforming to one of the following two standards by nationally recognized testing laboratories.
