PERIMETER DEFLECTION TEST The perimeter deflection test was conducted on both Cover-Pool safety covers In accordance with section 9.2 of ASTM ES '13. With a 50 Ib. weight placed 4' from the edge of the pool on top of the safety cover, the test object was unable to pass through any opening at the perimeter of the pool. Both Cover-Pool safety covers met the performance requirements for the perimeter deflection test as outlined in ASTM ES 13 section 7.2. SURFACE DRAINAGE TEST On June 12, 1990, the surface drainage test was conducted on a Cover-Pool safety cover which was installed on a local private pool. The tracking system was an under track system. The pool dimensions were 14.17'x42.5'. The surface drainage test was conducted in accordance with ASTM ES 13 section 9.3. Water was applied evenly at a rate of 11.7 gpm per 1000 sq. ft. A small sump pump, with discharge capacity of 20 gpm, was placed at one end of the safety cover with the discharge hose snaking the length of the pool, on top of the safety cover, and discharging at the opposite end from the pump. The water was applied for 30 minutes with the pump on and in place. The water was then shut off and the pump was allowed to run for an additional 30 minutes. _ The test mannequin (Timmy) was then placed upon the safety cover. At the end of 3 minutes after placing Timmy upon the safety cover, an unsafe amount of water as described in ASTM ES 13 section 9.3.1 did not exist. The Cover-Pool safety cover met the safety requirements as outlined in ASTM ES 13 section 7.3. All safety covers and equipment tested were standard as provided by Cover-Pools Inc.
