Due to many factors associated with typical use, including chemicals and UV light, drain covers break down and need to be replaced over time (and ideally before they cause an issue).
According to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection, the life span of drain covers can vary greatly. They provide the following guidance for maximum life span.
Aquastar |
5 years |
Neptune Benson |
10-15 years |
Eureka |
20 years |
Paramount |
5 years |
Grate Ideas |
10 years |
Pentair |
7 years |
Hayward |
7 years |
Strongwell |
20 years |
Daldorado |
25 years |
Waterway |
7 years |
Please note the dates above are only a guide and your team should check your drain covers as part of routine maintenance to ensure they are still structurally sound.
If you have questions about replacing your drain covers, or anything related to the safe operation of your aquatics facility, contact the experts at WMS Aquatics at 800.426.9460.
