In reference to the wording of a document entitled "July 2009 CPSC Staff Draft Technical<br />
Guidance on Unblockable Drains"<br />
The wording is too technical <strong>and</strong> vague for the average pool operator or someone<br />
who has not worked around pools.. We propose that you draft a 3 point complying statement for<br />
"unblockable drains"<br />
Such as:<br />
To be compliant as an "unblockable drain", the drain must meet the following criterias:<br />
ASME/ANSI A112.19.8 states: "it requires drain covers to be tested <strong>and</strong> approved for<br />
body entrapment, limb entrapment, finger entrapment, hair entrapment<br />
(entanglement) <strong>and</strong> evisceration/disembowelment. EXisting drain covers may meet<br />
all of these provisions but they were not tested thus the manufacturers of these<br />
covers will not retroactively certify them"
