Hydra Pools SWEETWATER STEPS Installation guide

INSTALLATION MANUAL

STEPS

The hardware package consists of the following components:

A. Six leveling columns (starter kit)

B. Stainless steel faceplate screws

C. ‘Slippery When Wet’ sticker

1. Place the step in the appropriate location in your pool installation.

2. Cut leveling support pipe to proper length as needed for your step. Additional leveling columns

must be cut and placed under step for each support socket. (2” Schedule 40 PVC)

3. Gently tap the leveling columns until they are fully seated in the sockets provided on the step

support.

4. Properly level the step horizontally and vertically. Check the step to make sure it is plumb with

the ﬂanking wall panels.

5. To insure proper installation, clamp the step to the ﬂanking wall panels. This will allow proper

wall and drilling alignment.

STEP INSTALLATION

6. Pour a concrete bond beam at the base of the step

at the same time the beam is poured around the wall

and brace system.

7. Backﬁll the step cavity with grandular material to

acheive maximum compacting. Do not use clay, dirt,

soil or other earthen materials for the backﬁll. This

material will not compact properly, leaving hollow

cavities which will weaken step support over time.

*Note: Warranty will be void if not backﬁlled properly.

Leveling columns ARE NOT a substitute for proper

backﬁlling. Using only leveling columns for support

will void the warranty.
