Auto Draining Winter Cover<br />

FOR ABOVEGROUND POOLS<br />

If it doesn’t have a continuous barrier then it’s not an EZ Drain TM<br />

TM<br />

Au<br />

THE CONTINUOUS<br />

BARRIER<br />

Is designed to maintain the correct amount<br />

of water on your pool cover. Maintaining<br />

water on top of your cover protects it from<br />

harmful UV rays as well as prevents<br />

damage caused by wind flap<br />

THE FILTER<br />

SCREEN<br />

Is designed to prevent your automatic<br />

drain from becoming clogged. It also allows<br />

any debris that is collected to dry and be<br />

blown away<br />

DRAIN BASIN AND<br />

DRAIN PORT<br />

Are pre-assembled and are designed to<br />

collect water and direct it towards the<br />

external wall drain via a drain hose,<br />

which is supplied with the cover<br />

STRATEGICALLY PLACED<br />

COVER STABILIZERS<br />

Direct excess water towards the EZ DRAIN TM<br />

in the center of your pool. These foam<br />

flotation devices are encapsulated in the<br />

same material as the pool cover and are<br />

permanently attached to your cover. This<br />

eliminates the need for a bubble saving you<br />

both time and money<br />

TENSION ADJUSTMENT<br />

CLIPS<br />

To ensure proper drainage<br />

additional adjustments can<br />

be made by adding these<br />

clips in areas where you<br />

have excess cover material.<br />

Simply pull the cover over<br />

the top rail and snap the<br />

clip in place<br />

HELPFUL HINTS<br />

1. Always inflate Ice Equalizer 2 days prior to covering pool to check for leaks.<br />

(You may use a shop-vac on reverse or a hair dryer on a COOL setting to inflate)<br />

2. If you use water bags fill them only 2/3 full to allow for ice expansion. Test water<br />

bags by filling prior to pool closing.<br />

3. Never allow too much water to build up on top of your pool cover. Water can be easily<br />

removed by using a submersible pump or cover siphon.<br />

4. Check conditions of water after the first extended warm weather spell in the Spring.<br />

Add chlorine if necessary.<br />

5. Periodically check your skimmer box to make sure that it remains completely empty<br />

and dry through the winter months.<br />

water chemistry for pool closing.<br />

6. Remove ORB and dispose of empty canister.<br />

7. Backwash your filter (does not apply for cartridge filters) and thoroughly<br />

clean all internal components.<br />

AND PRICING<br />

Yes, that’s right. Unlike most other dealers who require you to place a minimum<br />

50% Down Payment BEFORE they will even come to your home to properly measure<br />

your pool, WE REQUIRE NO DOWN PAYMENT. All you have to do is visit any<br />

<strong>Island</strong> <strong>Recreational</strong> and a salesperson will be happy to schedule an In Home Measure<br />

for you - NO DEPOSIT REQUIRED.<br />

Why do we do this Because we’re so sure that you’ll be happy with our service,<br />

our cover and our price that we know we’re going to get your order anyway. So why<br />

hassle you with a minimum deposit prior to the measure<br />
