Swimming Pool Water Drainage System

Water drainage routing unwanted rain or runoff water away from certain structures and areas to targeted collection or escape points serves as a critical component of maintaining your swimming pool and backyard.

Swimming pool water drainage system.

Of course if the drainage system that is in place is rusting cracking or otherwise breaking it may need replacing. Excess water should drain off of your pool deck into a drain system or area of your landscaping that can absorb it well areas with pebble and soil underneath are popular. Check with a licensed plumber before draining pool water into a sanitary drain. For example any water entering your yard from the pool absorbs into the soil but the large water volume inevitably has runoff into side gutters that drain out to municipal storm drains.

The main drains are usually located on the lowest point in the pool so the entire pool. We ve already seen that the water in a swimming pool needs to circulate through a filtering system to remove dirt and debris. During normal operation water flows to the filtering system through two or more main drains at the bottom of the pool and multiple skimmer drains around the top of the pool. Do not drain water from a salt pool into a septic system.

Use a licensed sewage handling service to dispose of the salt pool water properly. Swimming pool drains or inlets originally served as conduits moving water between the pool and filter pumps.
