Bestway 56566 Hydrium Steel Wall Pool
ATTENTION!
Before setting up your pool ensure your selected location is completely firm
and level. Assemble the pool on the provided ground cloth.
NOTE: The liner of the steel wall pool is designed to be smaller than the steel wall for technical reasons. If you find it difficult to assemble the liner, place the liner under the sun for one hour which will make it more pliable. You should then be able to assemble the liner step by step, stretching it by hand at the same time. This procedure will not damage the liner.
WARNING
Carefully read, understand, and follow all information in this user manual before installing and using the swimming pool. These warnings, instructions, and safety guidelines address some common risks of water recreation, but they cannot cover all risks and dangers in all cases. Always use caution, common sense, and good judgment when enjoying any water activity. Retain this information for future use.
Non-Swimmers safety
- Continuous, active, and vigilant supervision of weak swimmers and non-swimmers by a competent adult is required at all times (remembering that children under five are at the highest risk of drowning).
- Designate a competent adult to supervise the pool each time it is being used.
- Weak swimmers or non-swimmers should wear personal protection equipment when using the pool.
- When the pool is not in use, or unsupervised, remove all toys from the swimming pool and its surrounding to avoid attracting children to the pool.
Safety devices
- In order to prevent children from drowning, it is recommended to secure the access to the pool with a protection device. In order to prevent children climbing from the inlet and outlet valve, it is recommended to install a barrier (and secure all doors and windows, where applicable) to prevent unauthorized access to the swimming pool.
- Barriers, pool covers, pool alarms, or similar safety devices are helpful aids, but they are not substitutes for continuous and competent adult supervision.
Safety equipment
- It is recommended to keep rescue equipment (e.g. a ring buoy) by the pool.
- Keep a working phone and a list of emergency phone numbers near the pool.
Safe use of the pool
-
Encourage all users especially children to learn how to swim.
-
Learn Basic Life Support (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation – CPR) and refresh this knowledge regularly. This can make a life-saving difference in the event of an emergency.
-
Instruct all pool users, including children, what to do in case of an emergency.
-
Never dive into any shallow body of water. This can lead to serious injury or death.
-
Do not use the swimming pool when using alcohol or medication that may impair your ability to safely use the pool.
-
When pool covers are used, remove them completely from the water surface before entering the pool.
-
Protect pool occupants from water related illnesses by keeping the pool water treated and practicing good hygiene. Consult the water treatment guidelines in the user’s manual.
-
Store chemicals (e.g. water treatment, cleaning or disinfection products) out of the reach of children.
-
Use the signage as outlined below. Signage is to be displayed in a prominent position within 2m of the pool.
-
Keep children under supervision in the aquatic environment. No diving.
-
Removable ladders shall be placed on a horizontal surface.
-
Irrespective of materials used for swimming pool construction, accessible surfaces have to be checked regularly to avoid injuries.
-
Regularly monitor bolts and screws; splinters or any sharp edges to avoid injuries.
ATTENTION: Do not leave the drained pool outside. The empty pool is liable to being deformed and/or displaced due to wind.
- If have a filter pump, refer to the pump’s manual for instructions.
WARNING! The pump cannot be used while people are inside the pool!
- If have a ladder, refer to the ladder’s manual for instructions.
WARNING! The use of a swimming pool implies compliance with the safety instructions described in the operating and maintenance guide. In order to prevent drowning or other serious injuries, pay particular attention to the possibility of unexpected access to the swimming pool by children under 5 years by securing access to it, and, during the bathing period, keep them under constant adult supervision.
NOTE: When installing the pool, the position of skimmer should be opposite to the main wind direction. The placement of the ladder in the pool shall be away from the skimmer.
Please read carefully and keep for future reference.
CHOOSE THE CORRECT LOCATION
The surface chosen to install the pool must respect the following technical characteristics:
- Because of the combined weight of the water inside the pool and the pool users, it is extremely important that the surface chosen to install the pool is capable of uniformly supporting the total weight for the entire time the pool is installed. When choosing the surface, take into consideration that water may come out of the pool when in use or in the rain. If the water softens the surface, it may lose its capability to support the pool weight.
- We recommend positioning the pool away from any objects children could use to climb into the pool.
- Position the pool near an adequate drainage system to deal with overflow or to discharge the pool.
- The surface must be flat and smooth. If the surface is inclined or uneven, it can create an unbalanced loading on the structure of the pool. This situation can damage the welding point of the liner, the steel wall top and the vertical platforms. In the worst cases, the pool can collapse, causing serious personal injury and/or damage to personal property.
- The selected surface must be clear of any type of object. Due to the weight of the water, any object under the pool could damage or perforate the bottom of the pool.
- The selected surface must be clear of aggressive plants and weed species. Those types of strong vegetation could grow through the liner and create water leakage. The grass or other vegetation that may cause odor or slime to develop have to be eliminated from the set-up location.
- The selected location must not have overhead power lines or trees. Be sure the location does not contain underground utility pipes, lines or cables of any kind.
- The selected position must be far from house entrance. Do not position any equipment or other furniture around the pool. The water that comes out of the pool during the use or due to a faulty product can damage the furniture inside the house or surrounding the pool.
- The selected surface must be flat and without holes that can damage the material of the liner.
Follow the important instructions above to choose the correct surface and location to set up your pool. Damaged parts of the pool, due to the fact that the set-up surface and location does not match the instructions, will not be considered as manufacture defect and will avoid the warranty and any service claims. Suggested set-up surfaces: grass, ground, concrete, and all other surfaces that respect the above set-up conditions. Not suggested surfaces: mud, sand, gravel, deck, balcony, driveway, platform, soft/loose soil or other surface that does not meet the above set-up conditions. Check with your local city council for by-laws relating to fencing, barriers, lighting and safety requirements and ensure you comply with all laws. If have a filter pump, refer to the pump’s manual for instructions. The ladder must match the pool size and should be used only for entering and exiting the pool. It is forbidden to exceed the permitted payload of the ladder. Check regularly if the ladder is properly assembled.
INSTALLATION
Installation usually takes approximately 2 hours with 2-3 people excluding earthworks and filling. Please refer to diagram steps.
Tools Required (not included)
NOTE: Before connecting valve to the pool, fill the pool leaving 5 – 6 cm
of space between the position of the connection valve and water surface.
WARNING! Never permanently install the connection valve before the water
is within a few centimeters of them because the liner has to be properly taut
from the pressure of the water.
NOTE: Be careful the splinters or any sharp edges when cutting the pool.
IMPORTANT: Cutting more liner than necessary will damage and void the
pool liner, so please trim with extra care.
POOL MAINTENANCE
- If you do not adhere to the maintenance guidelines below, your health might be at risk, especially that of your children.
Using chemical tablets (not included):
NOTE: Chemconnect or Chemical Floater must be used when you perform
chemical maintenance with tablets. Your purchased item may not include any of
those dispensers, in this case you can purchase it by visiting our website
www.bestwaycorp.com or at the nearest pool
dealer.
IMPORTANT: Don’t use granulate tablets or throw the tablet directly in
the water. The chemicals can deposit on the bottom, damage the material and
discolor the PVC. Using chemical liquid (not included):
IMPORTANT: Add chemical liquid in small doses and in the center of the
pool to avoid direct contact between the chemicals and the PVC surface. Direct
contact can damage the material and discolor the surface.
NOTE: Remove the chemical dispenser from pool when the pool is in use.
IMPORTANT: After performing chemical maintenance and before using the
pool, use a test kit (not included) to test the water chemistry. We recommend
maintaining your water according to the following table.
Parameters | Values |
---|---|
Water clarity | a clear view of the pool bottom |
Color of the water | no color should be observed |
Turbidity in FNU/NTU | max. 1,5 (preferably less than 0,5) |

Cyanuric acid in mg/l | max. 100 |
Combined chlorine in mg/l | max. 0,5 (preferably close to 0,0 mg/l) |
NOTE: Damage resulting from chemical imbalance is not covered by the
warranty. Pool chemicals are potentially toxic and should be handled with
care. There are serious health risks from chemical vapors and the incorrect
labeling and storage of chemical containers. Please consult your local pool
supply retailer for more information about chemical maintenance. Pay close
attention to the chemical manufacturer’s instructions. Pool damage resulting
from misuse of chemicals and mismanagement of pool water is not covered by the
warranty.
IMPORTANT: Over usage of chemicals can discolor the printing and all
points of the pool material. It can also damage the structure of the pool
liner.
To keep your pool clean
-
Contact your local pool supply shop for advice and purchase of chemicals and pH kits. One of the most important factors to increase the life of the liner is to keep continuously clean and healthy water. Please strictly follow the instructions from professional technicians for the water treatment through the use of chemicals.
-
Locate a bucket of water next to pool to clean users’ feet before entering pool.
-
Cover the pool when not in use.
-
Skim pool regularly to avoid settled dirt.
-
Check and wash the filter cartridge regularly.
-
Gently clean any scum from below the top ring with a clean cloth.
-
Please be careful in case of rain water, kindly check that the water level is not higher than the expected. If so, YOU
HAVE TO DISCHARGE THE EXCESS WATER. -
If it rains, check that the water level is not higher than the specified level. If water exceeds the specified levels, drain the pool to the specified level.
Proper maintenance can maximize the life of your pool.
During the season of use of the swimming pool, the filtration system must be
necessarily put into service every day, enough time to assure at least a
complete renewal of the volume of water.
NOTE: The pump is used to circulate the water and to filter small
particles. In order to keep your pool water clean and hygienic, you must also
add chemicals.
