You have applied for a permit under an exemption to that law. The exemption allows you, as the owner of your property, to act as your own contractor with certain restrictions even though you do not have a license. You must provide direct, onsite supervision of the construction yourself. You may build or improve a one -family or two-family residence or a farm outbuilding. You may also build or improve a commercial building, provided your costs do not exceed $75,000. The building or residence must be for your own use or occupancy. It may not be built or substantially improved for sale or lease. If you sell or lease a building you have built or substantially improved yourself within 1 year after the construction is complete, the law will presume that you built or substantially improved it for sale or lease, which is a violation of this exemption. You may not hire an unlicensed person to act as your contractor or to supervise people working on your building. It is your responsibility to make sure that people employed by you have licenses required by state law and by county or municipal licensing ordinances. You may not delegate the responsibility for supervising work to a licensed contractor who is not licensed to perform the work being done. Any person working on your building who is not licensed must work under your direct supervision and must be employed by you, which means that you must deduct F.I.C.A. and withholding tax and provide workers' compensation for that employee, all as prescribed by law. Your construction must comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, building codes, and zoning regulations. LC,5U, do hereby state that I am qualified and capable of performing the requested construction involved with the permit application filed. I will assume full responsibility as an Owner/Builder Contractor, and will personally supervise all work allowed by law on the permitted structure. �,[, Sgaj-m M 5/2 r/ uilder Signatu e Date Owner is Personally Known to Me or has Produced ID ,zT.07 Sin re of Notary—State #Florida �o, ;": 'Ate JU ANN M.

THE SECRET TO INSTALLING A POOL SO THAT IT WILL GIVE -`' YOU YEARS OF PLEASURE IS TO TAKE THE TIME TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AND DO THINGS RIGHT THE FIRST TIME. YOUR POOL WARRANTY IS VOID IF THESE INSTRUC- TIONS ARE NOT FOLLOWED 100%, READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDING ACCES- SORIES SUCH AS FILTERS, PUMPS, SKIMMERS, DECKS, ETC. PRIOR TO STARTING ANY AFTERMARKET OR HOME BUILT DECK, IF ALLOWED, SHOULD BE CONSTRUCTED ACCORDING TOALL LOCAL BUILDING CODE REQUIREMENTS, INCLUDING LOAD CAPAC- ITY AND FENCING REQUIREMENTS. BEFORE YOU START, CHECK TO SEE THAT YOU HAVE THE CORRECT NUMBER OF PARTS. USE YOUR PARTS LIST WHICH IS BROKEN DOWN BY CARTON. THE MANUFACTURER RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REVISE, CHANGE, OR MODIFY CONSTRUCTION OF THEIR POOLS. - NOTE: If a power drill is used during installation, it should be a variable speed _ drill used on low settina. Torque should not exceed SA Inrh nnn„d, fall,,«. f. 313 Regina Avenue • Rahway, New Jersey 07065-4891 USA Tel: (732) 574-1500 - Fax: (732) 574-1551 www.swimnplay.com • E-mail: info@swimnplay.com 11 Contract Installations The manufacturer is in no way affiliated with any professional pool installer. Therefore the manufacturer can assume no respon� ";:iy, for errors in installation by the home owner or said professional installer. If you have your pool installed uy omers, please supervise to be sure they comply with the proper installation techniques shown. Their. past experience or short cuts may not cover the latest improvements in our pools. Do not allow any short cuts or£iny nature. Local Codes Local building code may require obtaining a building permit and may have regulations on set backs, barriers, devices and other conditions that must be followed. Any after market or home built deck should be built to the local building code requirements, including load capacity and fencing requirements. Local electrical code may require obtaining a building permit and may have regulations on setbacks, devices and other conditions that must be followed. All electrical outlet connections should be a minimum of 5 feet from the outside perimeter of the wall of the pool. From 540 feet there should be either a fixed connection (outlet box) or twistlock connection with a GFCI. Connect power cords to a 3 -wire grounding -type outlet only. Severe electrical shock could result if you install your pump or filter on a deck. They could fall into the water, caus- ing severe shock or electrocution. Do not install on a deck or other surface at, above or slightly below the top seat of the pool. Barrier Requirements If the distance from the top of the'assembled pool is less than 48" vertically from the surrounding grade, a fence or barrier is needed to surround the pool with a minimum height of 48 _ A barrier is necessary to provide protection against potential drowning and near drowning and is not a substitute for constant supervision of children. A barrier is a fence, wall, or a combination thereof which completely surrounds the swimming pool and obstructs access to the swimming pool. Barriers must comply with local and national building codes and the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. These are minimum fencing and barrier requirements. Check your local building codes for other requirements they may request. Optional fencing kits are available, Please contact your local dealer- If ealerIf pool covers are used for safety barriers they should comply with ASTM F 1346 "Standard Performance Specification for Safety Covers and Labeling Requirements for All Covers for Swimming Pools, Spas and Hot Tubs." Special Care Even though this manufacturer's pools are designed to meet or exceed industry recommended safety factors, spe- cial attenbon must be paid to some installation procedures that the installer performs and controls. • Levelness- spend the time to assure that the entire pool framework is level within 1' Unle_vel,pools place > extreme pressures on the pool walls, - Wall Seam- this area is where the wall joins together. Damage to any part. -of this area reduces the safety factors and can result in a weak pool. Use extreme care following instructions.. Earth Mound- this keeps the liner from creeping out from under the pool wall.' Follow instructions to the let- ter -' don't short-cut or substitute materials. Improperly installed pools can -rupture, allowing thousands of gallons of water to rush out causing extensive property damage and injury to anyone in its path. • This manufacturer's pools are not designed to be buried. Outside ground forces can collapse pool wall. • The pool owner has the sole responsibility for providing adequate lighting for the pool area. It is important that all users must be able to see the shallow depth of the pool, and safety signs at all times. Yob must install a pool ladder(s) for entry and exit from the pool = 'All components such as the filtration system, pumps and heater should be positioned as to prevent their. being used as a means of access to the pool by young children - Introduction The installation of an average pool size pool (18' - 27' diameter) will usually require.three people to help set it up. Below is an assortment of tools and materials which you will need for preparing the ground, checking the levelness, and setting up the pool.

CENTER STAKE r 2i4 _ p FRIENDS p 4 1 I I CLOTH TAPE - SIFTED EARTH OR _- .. - PRE -WASHED SAND Selecting Pool Location The selection and preparation of the pool site is your responsibility. The manufacturer can only suggest the proper techniques, indicate the important considerations and emphasize the precautions, and cannot be held responsible for damages to your pool that may result from failure to carefully follow all pool site specifications. 1. The surface on which your pool will stand must be ABSOLUTELY LEVEL AND SOLID. This condition should extend several feet beyond the actual pool area all around. The best surface is bare solid earth free from stones, roots, and other sharp objects. 2. Allow plenty of play area around the pool. Fit the location into your landscaping plans. , 3. The pool site must be accessible to electrical and water supply and should allow. for disposal of greatquan- tities of water when pool is drained. 4. When installing your pool on a SOLID LEVEL SURFACE, It is imperative that you protect your pool and liner from chemicals and other'fo'reign matter contained in the surface. Protect your pool and liner by inserting between them and the surface any material that is.not made from a tar derivative or contains sharp twigs, etc. ,We suggest the -use of a plastic ground shield to be used between the surface and the pool liner. Do not install your pool on peat moss, tar paper, gravel or chemically. treated soil. Any or all of these surfaces can ruin your pool and liner and will void your liner warranty. 5. Do not -setup your pool under trees or under overhead wires. 6. DO NOT setup your pool near any existing structure such as your house garage, etc., as this condition will induce diving or jumping into your pool which could result in permanent injury or death. 7. Do not setup your pool on or near any septic system or underground utilities. 8. Choose your pool location convenient for. &.Connecting. electrical wires of your accessories (filter, heater, lights) to your electrical outlets conforming to electrical codes. _ b., Draining large amounts of water. ��1 PREPARING THErGROUND I�j�a Your pool must be installed on a solid level surface. Drive a stake into the ground at the center of your pool loca- tion. With the use of the leveling device shown and a shovel start leveling the ground, removing all grass and sharp objects such as sticks and stones. Level area to the lowest spot within the clearance radius. DO NOT FILL IN LOW SPOTS. Give special attention to the outer part of the circle as this is where the bottom track and pool wall will rest and must be absolutely level. DO NOT FILL IN DIG AWAY HERE CARPENTER'S LEVEL D _l— LEVEL— CLEARANCE RADIUS The assembled pool must have a vertical distance of 3' from the top of the pool to the adjoining grade and the adjoining grade must remain level for a distance of 4' away from the pool.

This will protect your pool liner and metal parts against chemical reactions from the ground soil. Mark out pool radius (1/2 pool diameter) using the center stake as reference. The slots in the bottom track mus' face upward. i On pool models with the 1" bottom rail and 13/4" verticals: Form a circle by sliding the end of the bottom track into the rail/vertical connector leaving 1/4" gap between eact, rail, in the center of the connector. Continue in this manner all the way around pool, until the circle is complete! On pool models with the 5/s"and 9116" interlocking rails, Form a circle by inserting the 9/16" rail into the 5/8" rail approximately 2". Continue in this manner all the way around the pool until the circle is complete, alternating a 9/16" rail then a 5/8" rail. 1 Check that the bottom framework of your pool is perfectly round by measuring the distance between the central stake and the rails at various points. Bring the required amount of sifted earth or prewashed sand into the pool area at this time. Refer to chart above for the required amount. ! Remove wall from carton. Note the UP arrow on wall. Determine starting point as the filter inlet and outlet holes are at the ,.beginning of the wall. Starting at the center of a bottom plate insert the 'bottom edge of wall into the groove on the bottom rail. Make sure that the cutouts for filter inlet and outlet are on the top portion of the wall and will not be hidden behind a vertical. If the wall ends do not meet, adjust the bottom rail in or out of the bottom plates. The spacing in all bottom plates should be equal. 4k� tt RCLOSING=THE:' WALL, RECHECKING4sY0UR,WiORK YOU MUST ASSEMBLE THE POOL WALL AS PER INSTRUCTIONS USE ALL BOLTS.

CLOSE-UPS AN B, L NO DIVING SHALLOW WATER DIVING MAY CAUSE DEATH OR WPERMANENI INJURY #490021 10 III - ANTI-ALGATE TRETMENT 1 -Preventive treatment: At the dosage prescribed above, chlorine also acts as an algicide. Stormy weather, fre- quent use of the pool, faulty filtering are fac- tors which can increase the rate of algae formation, resulting in slippery, slightly j greenish walls. In this case, do not hesitate to apply a high chlorine dosage and leave the filter on around the clock. 2 -High -dosage algicide: If in spite of this measure the algae do not disappear, use a very active algicide. IV - FLOCCULATION Certain very fine organic particles may not be'. I sufficiently filtered by sand filter action. The use of a flocculating agent will enhance the efficiency of filtering, thus eliminating all'', suspended particles in pool water. Start by putting the flocculating agent into the filter. If it turns out that this is insuffi- cient, perform flocculation directly in the pool itself. Observe. the instructions on. the package. V - WINTER CARE 1. If thru wall skimmer inlet and outlets are used, the skimmer must be blocked off with a block off plate to prevent any water from t laying in the skimmer. The return fitting must also be blocked off by using a plug on i the inside of the pool. It is very important that the return fitting not protrude into the pool and that water is not allowed to flow into the skimmer. If this is not followed, when the ice in your pool forms it will grab I onto your skimmer and return fittings, and if f the ice should shift it will rip your wall at f these locations. i 2. A properly sized ice compensator (pool pillow) must be secured in the pool water to ' relieve the ice pressure that can exert severe pressure on the pool wall. 3. Proper chemicals must be used in order to prevent algae growth throughout the winter. A strong concentration of chlorine and an algaecide will help. 4. A cover must be used to keep out dirt and t debris from the pool. It is important when securing the cover that enough slack is used . so that it rests on the top of the water so that the pressure is not on the pool frame. A i build up of snow on the top of the cover r should be removed. While the pool is winterized It Is Important - that it remain undisturbed throughout the winter months.

Check the pH value, which should be situated The pH value is generally quite stable, but it can be modified by adding water to the pool and by between 7.2 and 7.6. Use the analysis kit. If the pH value found is higher than 7.6, use the use of organic chlorine (e.g. Javel water or Clorox), which often raises the water pH level and "�- ) pH MOINS".(pH decreaser); decomposes rapidly. , . If the pH value found is lower than 7.2; use "pH PLUS" (pH increaser). t2Check chlorine level.

Do not wait for them to dissolve If the value found Is lower than this, use entirely before adding the new ones. 1 it III - ANTI-ALGATE TRETMENT 1 -Preventive treatment: At the dosage prescribed above, chlorine also acts as an algicide. Stormy weather, fre- quent use of the pool, faulty filtering are fac- tors which can increase the rate of algae formation, resulting in slippery, slightly j greenish walls. In this case, do not hesitate to apply a high chlorine dosage and leave the filter on around the clock. 2 -High -dosage algicide: If in spite of this measure the algae do not disappear, use a very active algicide. IV - FLOCCULATION Certain very fine organic particles may not be'. I sufficiently filtered by sand filter action. The use of a flocculating agent will enhance the efficiency of filtering, thus eliminating all'', suspended particles in pool water. Start by putting the flocculating agent into the filter. If it turns out that this is insuffi- cient, perform flocculation directly in the pool itself. Observe. the instructions on. the package. V - WINTER CARE 1. If thru wall skimmer inlet and outlets are used, the skimmer must be blocked off with a block off plate to prevent any water from t laying in the skimmer. The return fitting must also be blocked off by using a plug on i the inside of the pool. It is very important that the return fitting not protrude into the pool and that water is not allowed to flow into the skimmer. If this is not followed, when the ice in your pool forms it will grab I onto your skimmer and return fittings, and if f the ice should shift it will rip your wall at f these locations. i 2. A properly sized ice compensator (pool pillow) must be secured in the pool water to ' relieve the ice pressure that can exert severe pressure on the pool wall. 3. Proper chemicals must be used in order to prevent algae growth throughout the winter. A strong concentration of chlorine and an algaecide will help. 4. A cover must be used to keep out dirt and t debris from the pool. It is important when securing the cover that enough slack is used . so that it rests on the top of the water so that the pressure is not on the pool frame. A i build up of snow on the top of the cover r should be removed. While the pool is winterized It Is Important - that it remain undisturbed throughout the winter months. I
