🛠️ Installation Tips & Best Practices:

• For Gunite Applications: Install the body level with the steel shell and ensure secure bonding with pool-grade hydraulic cement or plaster

• Bonding & Grounding: Per NEC 680 code, bond all metallic parts of the drain system to ensure electrical safety

• Versatile Port Design: Use the side and bottom ports to optimize hydraulic layout—ideal for balancing suction and improving system efficiency

• Lid Mounting: Secure the included Nova lid with provided stainless steel screws; inspect for wear during routine maintenance

• Avoid Alterations: Never drill, cut, or modify the drain body or cover—always use certified replacements to maintain VGBA compliance

⚡ Electrical Safety Notes – NEC 680 Compliance:

Although the main drain itself is non-electrical, proper bonding and grounding are essential. All installations must comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC 680) to mitigate shock risk and pass inspection. Improper grounding may void safety compliance and create serious hazards.

📚 Product Background:

CMP’s Nova main drain series was developed in response to the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act (VGBA), which mandates safer suction outlet systems in residential and commercial pools. The 25517-500-000 model offers a dual-port configuration and comes equipped with a flush-mounted Nova cover to reduce entrapment risks and deliver excellent hydraulic performance. The white finish is especially popular in light-colored pools for a clean and professional look.
