Achieve Superior Water Circulation and Unmatched Filtration with the AstralPool 26196 Main Drain

Ensure the foundational health and clarity of your concrete or gunite swimming pool with the AstralPool 26196 Circular Main Drain. As a critical component of your pool´s filtration and circulation system, this main drain is expertly engineered to provide powerful and efficient water suction from the deepest point of your pool. By drawing water from the bottom, it works in perfect harmony with your surface skimmer to guarantee comprehensive water turnover, eliminating stagnant areas where algae and debris can accumulate. This results in visibly clearer water, a more balanced distribution of chemicals, and a consistently comfortable water temperature throughout the entire pool.

Engineered for Versatility and Professional Installation

The AstralPool 26196 main drain is designed with the professional pool builder and discerning homeowner in mind, offering exceptional installation flexibility. It features a dual-outlet configuration to accommodate various plumbing designs and hydraulic requirements. This includes a 2-inch side outlet and a 1 ½-inch bottom outlet, providing your installer with multiple options for connecting to the filtration system. This adaptability simplifies the installation process in new concrete pool constructions and makes it an ideal replacement unit during renovations, ensuring a perfect fit for your specific project needs.

A Focus on Safety and Lasting Performance

Safety is paramount in any pool environment. This main drain is equipped with a specially designed grille that promotes safe operation by preventing the formation of dangerous vortexes. The grate´s design ensures a distributed suction flow, adhering to important safety considerations for all swimmers. Built to withstand the demanding underwater environment of a concrete pool, the entire assembly is treated for enhanced durability against UV rays and pool chemicals. This robust construction ensures long-lasting performance and reliability, protecting the core of your circulation system for years to come. Choosing the AstralPool 26196 means investing in the long-term integrity and safety of your swimming pool.
