Spa Drains

As VGB act is going to be implemented towards the end of this month, does anyone know of any spa drains (bulkhead type fitting) that are compliant with ANSI A112.19.8-2007 standard. Waterway has a 640-3630-V that they say has been approved. Perhaps there are some portable spa manufacturers / retailers that have some good info for all of us.

  • I have been part of that discussion as well. I think this is not getting the attention it needs. Anyone selling or manufacturing spas should call the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) and explain the situation. Portable Spas are safe. On the APSP tech council, we came up with simple solutions for the industry as far as the different planes issue. We all need to do everything we can to help the spa drain cover manufacturers get their products approved.
  • This issue is being addressed by the APSP with the CPSC for portable spas and may give you some insight. The APSP newsletter Currents that was sent today has a link to this information. I tried to add the link here but did not succeed. Email me and I can send you the proposal to the CPSC. Sorry I could not elaborate but I've got to run!!
