OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
MANUAL
"NSF CERTIFIED TO THE ASTM SAFETY SPECIFICATION F 2208"
This product has been designed to aid in the detection of unwanted intrusions into
unsupervised pools. POOLGUARD IS A SAFETY ALARM SYSTEM AND NOT A
LIFE SAVING DEVICE. "This device is not intended to replace any other safety
consideration - i.e., adult supervision, lifeguards, fences, gates, pool covers, locks, etc.,
and some devices may not detect gradual entry."
CERTIFICATION
NSF International Certifies that the POOLGUARD Pool Alarm Model
PERM -2 conforms to the requirements of ASTM F2208 - Standard
Safety Specification for Residential Pool alarms.
1. Certified to ASTM F2208-2008 for performance.
2. Certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 50 for material safety. Certified
pool and spa end use temperatures.
POOLGUARD Pool Alarm Model PGRM-2 will meet or exceed all parts
of the Tennessee Pool Alarm requirements of the Katie Beth Law.
INSPECTION
POOLGUARD is packaged in a shipping carton that minimizes the chance
of damage due to handling. Check for damage and confirm that the con-
tents of the carton include the following items:
• POOLGUARD Unit
• Handle
• Red Reset/Sleep Key
• Remote Receiver and Power Supply
• Operating Instructions Manual
If an item is missing, contact either the
Industries, Inc. for replacement.
CARE AND HANDLING
place of purchase or PBM
POOLGUARD is constructed from sturdy plastic to withstand the adverse moisture
environment of a swimming pool. Care needs to be taken when handling to ensure
against being dropped, kicked, etc. ALWAYS REMOVE THE POOL UNIT FROM
THE POOL WHEN THE POOL IS BEING USED. STORE THE ALARM IN THE
UPRIGHT POSITION (See Figure 1) AWAY FROM POOL ACTIVITY. If the pool
unit accidentally falls into your pool, remove it immediately and drain the water
from it. Take the pool unit apart as indicated in the Battery Installation/Replacement
section and remove the battery. Remove all the water from the inside of the unit,
the battery and the circuit board area with a paper towel or cloth. Completely test
the alarm before each use as described in the manual to ensure proper operation.
CAUTION: KEEP THE RED RESET/SLEEP KEY OUT OF THE REACH OF
CHILDREN. INTERNAL MAGNET MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED!

UPRIGHT POSITION
Figure 2 illustrates locations best suited for detecting intrusions from any
area of the pool. If your pool is larger than 800 square feet, if you have
more than 2 return lines, any concerns about the size, or if you have
an irregular shaped pool or water features such as waterfalls, please call
customer service to clarify the recommended number of alarms and locations
for alarms: 1-800-242-7163. Poolguard Pool Alarms have been tested and
comply to the ASTM Standard Specifications for Residential Pool Alarms
ASTM F 2208, in a 16'x 32' pool. POOLGUARD alarms can be used in pools
up to 20' x 40' or 800 square feet.

Pools 800 Square Feet and Smaller.

PLACEMENT IN YOUR POOL (Continued)
POOLGUARD automatically compensates for variations in pool levels
within the unit's operating range. The unit utilizes a sensing throat which
projects into the water and is designed to operate in most pools with an
in -wall skimmer. The sensing throat cannot be less than 2.5 inches, (See
Figure 3), and not more than 5.5 inches into the water, POOLGUARD
recommends that the sensing throat be approximately 4 inches in the water
POOLGUARD can be used with SOLAR BLANKETS on the pool.
POOLGUARD can also be used in spas.

14 1/2"

SENSING THROAT CANNOT BE LESS THAN 2.5"IN BLOCKRT
THE WATER, POOLGUARD RECOMMENDS THAT
TTHE HE WATER SENSING THROAT BE APPROXIMATELY 4" IN FIGURE 3
IMPORTANT
POOLGUARD may not function properly if your pools water level is not maintained within the required levels of your alarm.
Also, the unit may not operate effectively while certain types of automatic pool cleaners are in operation.
Some irregular shaped decks may not provide a level foundation for the
unit by the pool's edge. This minor problem can be overcome by
appropriately supporting the unit, (See Figure 3).
STABILIZING YOUR POOL ALARM
The Alarm Stabilizing Pin (ASP) is factory installed onto your pool alarm.
Tools needed to install your alarm are: One 5/16" masonry drill bit that can
be found at your local hardware store, a drill, a pencil, a tape measure or yard
stick.
1. Position your pool alarm so that the sensing throat is in the water and
the ASP is touching the deck, (leave a small space no more than 3/8" between
the sensing throat and the top edge of your deck or coping), (See Figure 4).
2. Mark with a pencil the spot where you wish to drill the hole for the ASP.
3. With the 5/16" masonry drill bit, drill a hole 2 1/4" inches deep, as
straight as possible.
