DunRite Site Furnishings and Amenities

Optimal site characteristics

1. Concrete deck around the pool.  If you pool deck is a typical 4" minimum thickness concrete deck, our slides will easily mount on the deck.

2. 15 to 25 feet from the water’s edge to where the concrete ends (usually there is a fence).

3. 20 feet of linear length usable space along pool edge.

4. Federal regulations dictate a minimum 40" water depth where the slide flumes enter the pool

(depths of 4 feet or greater are preferred).

5. Design adaptations available to provide flume entrances at corners and on peninsulas.

6. Electrical codes in some states dictate that our pipe structure be bonded (or ground) to some other pervasive metal structure around the pool. ( e.g. the rebar in the concrete ) Some clients have done this using #8 copper wire. Regardless, this is the owner’s responsibility.

7. A water volume of 15 to 20 gallons per minute, per flume is sufficient for most of our water slides. Larger flume may be more appropriate at 20-30 gallons per minute.

8. Regulations may vary by state, county or municipality.  It is the pool owner's responsibility to understand and secure any required permits or licenses.  Occasionally, a regulator will ask for additional engineering documentation.  Wind, soil, structural analysis requirements are provided on a case per case basis for an additional charge.
