Tru Blu installation & ownership guide

Pool safety

Arrange barriers, inspections and daily safe access alongside the installation.

Use this guide with the installation detail and equipment manuals supplied with your pool. Your site approval sets the required inspections.

Approval and barriers

Arrange the applicable approval and barrier requirements with your certifier or council before installation. Eligible NSW projects may use a CDC assessed by a suitably registered independent certifier.
Above-ground walls, a ladder, deck or cover do not automatically replace a compliant pool barrier. Have the complete access arrangement assessed.

Secure the work area, excavation and pool throughout the installation. Arrange a compliant temporary or permanent barrier before water creates an accessible hazard.
Keep tools, equipment, chairs and landscape items away from the barrier’s non-climbable zones.

Test the gate from different open positions so it closes and latches itself. Never prop it open.
Display the included CPR sign where it is easily seen and read. Complete the required inspection, registration and completion process.

Actively supervise children near water. Fencing and equipment do not take the place of supervision.
No diving or jumping into a plunge pool. Keep suction fittings intact and stop use if a cover, barrier or electrical component is damaged.

Work through the drawings and job checks below, or download the same sequence as a PDF. Open a drawing to zoom into its labels.

Confirm full, level support, retained edges and finished drainage. Check no construction debris remains inside the shell.
Verify cured seals, supported plumbing, closed drain fittings and accessible service connections. Check suction covers and fasteners.
Complete licensed electrical work and the required barriers / inspection sequence. Keep children excluded throughout filling and startup.
Prepare water-care supplies and agree the operating waterline. The maximum brim-full calculation is not the working fill volume.

Use the certifier’s required sequence. Registration, barrier compliance and occupation/use approval are separate records where applicable.

Fill gradually and monitor the shell, base and fittings. Inspect for leaks as water reaches each connection.
Stop filling at the operating line set for the supplied skimmer. Record the filled depth or water-meter difference if a working volume is needed.
Open the correct circulation valves. Prime the pump and bleed filter air using their instructions before sustained running.
Inspect the complete circuit under operation and label normal valve positions. Stop and isolate before correcting a fault.

Job check / record

Never dry-run the pump or energise an exposed underwater lamp.

Confirm clear circulation, clean-filter pressure and no persistent air entry. Keep equipment service lids and isolation controls accessible.
Enable the assembled UV system with coordinated filtration operation. UV treats passing water but does not leave residual sanitiser in the pool.
Test the water and establish the specified compatible water-care programme. Do not put concentrated chemicals into the skimmer or directly against the coating.
If selected, commission the heat pump and submerged light using their respective procedures. Demonstrate controls and isolation.

Job check / record

Fresh-water top-ups are not a substitute for measured water care and a suitable sanitiser residual.

Keep order, delivery and installation details together with the manuals. Record model and serial numbers before labels become difficult to reach.
Attach foundation, hidden-service, fitting and equipment photographs. Keep electrical, approval, inspection and registration records.
Show the owner basket removal, filter pressure reading, normal valve positions, controls, waterline and routine water testing.
Check the starter kit: leaf skimmer, wall brush, telescopic pole, thermometer, test bottle and CPR sign. The optional Telsa 50 has its own pole included.
