Brief Product History:

The CMP Pool Defender® series was developed to revolutionize pool safety and streamline NEC electrical compliance. By integrating a water bonding lug directly into the skimmer body, CMP eliminated the need for cumbersome external fittings, reducing installation time and enhancing swimmer protection. The single-port water-bonded model 25140-529-000N continues this legacy, providing reliable performance and industry-leading safety for residential and commercial gunite pools.

Electrical & Installation Tips:

• ⚡ Integrated Water Bonding: Connect a #8 solid copper bonding conductor directly to the built-in copper lug per NEC 680.26(c) to ensure safe electrical grounding and reduce stray voltage risk.

• 🧰 Installation: Position the skimmer flush with the pool’s waterline before gunite application, using tie-wire braces or mounting jigs for stability.

• 💧 Plumbing: Use high-quality PVC primer and cement on all joints; allow adequate curing time before pressurizing.

• 🔧 Knockout Port: Utilize the knockout port to add vacuum lines or equalizer connections as needed.

• 🧼 Maintenance: Top access cover and true weir design enable effortless debris basket cleaning without draining the pool.
