Formulas to calculate minimum flow rate based on volume (if you do not have a flowmeter):

bullet

Spa (minimum 30 min turnover required) Pool volume divided by 30 min. = gpm       

bullet

Baby pool (minimum 2 hr turnover required) Pool volume divided by 120 min. = gpm   

bullet

Big Pool (minimum 6 hr turnover) Pool volume divided by 360 min. = gpm

This information applies to all pools:          

bullet

Flow fate for covers is based on 1.5 ft./second, according to ANSE.                                   

bullet

Some states require flow rate for covers to be 1 ft./second.  Check with your local officials.   MI, IN are two states that require this.

 

You can use the square stainless steel unblockable cover if you have a pool or spa with a single or dual main drain that meets the following criteria:

A 26" square cover can be used if the drain sump is 18" x 18" or less and the  maximum flow rate is 495 gpm or less.

A 32" square cover can be used if the drain sump is 24" x 24" or less and the  maximum flow rate is 675 gpm or less.

A 44" square cover can be used if the drain sump is 36" x 36" or less and the  maximum flow rate is 975 gpm or less.

 

You can use the following stainless steel drain cover if you have a pool or spa with dual (or more) main drains:

Pools with dual drains are required to have an ASME approved cover, but NOT an unblockable cover.   

A 20" square cover can be used if the drain sump is 12" x 12" or less and the  maximum flow rate is 233 gpm or less.  The drains must be at least 36" apart (center to center).  If they are not, you might be able to use a 32" or 44" square stainless steel unblockable cover above installed diagonally.

If your sump is greater than 12" x 12", you must use the square stainless steel unblockable cover above.
