Piece of sandpaper
Tools needed:
1 4
1/4" or 4
3/8" diameter hole saw and drill
( or 2 1/2"-2 5/8" for 2" bulkhead)
1 Large
Channel-Lock or pipe wrench
Directions:
- Drill a hole (see above sizing) at the lowest point on the
floor in the pond shell.
- Install bulkhead fitting (see bulkhead fitting instructions).
- Center dome drain over the installed bulkhead.
- You can trim the horizontal feet of the drain to suit the
model of shell you have purchased.
- Locate grey PVC locking tabs as shown in picture. Mark the
location of these tabs on the fiberglass shell. A white crayon
works well for marking.
- Using sandpaper provided, significantly sand the fiberglass
area underneath the locking tab on the floor of the pond.
- Mix epoxy as directed and apply it to the bottoms of the
locking tabs and position as shown in the picture.
- Once the epoxy has cured, this will result in the ability
to rotate the drain 1/8 of a turn and remove the drain from the
floor of the pond. It is unlikely that you would ever need to
remove the drain from the pond; however, this gives you the option
of doing so and keeps the drain securely locked to the floor.
- The remaining portion of the installation is simply installing
the 3" close nipple ( or 2" as above)using pipe dope
provided to both sets of threads, attaching the 3" PVC 90°
ell( or 2" as above) and continuing the rest of your plumbing
on the outboard side of your pond shell.
