Title: Pool Equipment Installation Review
Author: Swimming Pool Steve
Length: 46 Videos (Playlist)
Swimming pool equipment that is not installed correctly according to manufacturers guidelines and industry adapted "best practices" will need service and replacement sooner than pool equipment which has been correctly installed. This video series serves to establish a known standard for how pool equipment should be installed - something easy to relate to and understand so that all pool owners can easily apply the knowledge of how to get the best, most efficient performance from their pool equipment, for the longest possible period of time.
The pool equipment reviews shown here were picked at random in order to provide an insight into the "average" swimming pool equipment installation. While these swimming pools were all located within a localized market (Greater Toronto Area - Ontario, Canada) the findings of this inspection series are a clear indication of widespread failure to identify and improve on known requirements for effective pool equipment installation. This is due to a lack of congruency from one company to the next, ultimately due to a historical lack of trade certification, licensing or regulation of virtually any kind in the industry as a whole.
If you are a pool owner then the onus is on you to protect your investment by becoming knowledgeable as to how your equipment should, and should not, be installed. While these videos are intended for pool owners, the information contained within is more than in-depth enough for experienced swimming pool builders and technicians to learn and improve from.

For more information you can read this page about pool equipment consulting.
Early equipment failure - What the average pool owner does not appreciate is just how much poor equipment installation or deficiencies with your swimming pool filtration equipment installation will reduce the service life of these components. In addition to costing more because they fail early, a poorly designed and installed plumbing system and filtration system costs more day-to-day and month-to-month as compared to a more efficiently laid out system. It would be a mistake to assume that everything on your pool equipment pad is installed correctly and if you see anything that does not look right you should consider consulting with a professional about how to resolve this.
