The Orange County Fire Authority recently joined the campaign to get Laguna Niguel people to pool safely with a recent tweet.

That’s because the main drain of your pool presents the danger of main drain entrapment. Beachside Pool Service is the Laguna Niguel pool service that has been spreading the word about main drain entrapment since last year. We love to see others spreading this safety message too!

Main Drain Entrapment

Main drain entrapment refers to drowning caused by the suction of the pool pump on a broken drain grate. The pool pump creates an unbelievable amount of suction on the main drain. It’s how the pump recirculates the water so it can be heated and filtered. But, if the cover over the main drain is broken or is not compliant with the Virginia Graeme Baker Act, and a swimmer’s hair, body part or bathing suit gets get pulled in tragedy happens.  The force of the pump is so strong, it is impossible to pull the swimmer loose. You must turn off the pump to break the suction. In the time it takes to do this, the swimmer drowns.

Main Drain Inspection
