Pentair In-Floor AVSC Drain

Pentair’s AVSC is a specially designed pool drain cover that minimizes the risks associated with suction entrapment. Traditional pool drains, especially older models, have been known to create dangerous vortexes in the water. This suction vortex can create a powerful, potentially harmful force that can trap swimmers, particularly children, or individuals who are not strong swimmers. To address these concerns, Pentair has introduced the AVSC (Anti-Vortex Suction Cover), a breakthrough in pool drain technology that prioritizes both safety and performance. 

Benefits of Pentair’s AVSC Drains

Enhanced Safety: The primary benefit of the AVSC system is its focus on safety. By preventing dangerous vortex suction and entrapment, it provides peace of mind for pool owners, particularly those with children or vulnerable swimmers.

Compliance with Safety Standards: The AVSC drain system is designed to meet the stringent safety standards set by the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act (VGB Act), which mandates safer pool drain covers for commercial and residential pools. Pool owners can be assured that AVSC drains comply with these regulations.

Durable and Long-Lasting: Made from high-quality materials, Pentair’s AVSC drains are built to last. They resist corrosion and UV degradation, ensuring they perform optimally over the years.

Easy Maintenance: The AVSC drain cover is easy to inspect and maintain, making it a hassle-free addition to any pool system. Regular cleaning and maintenance will keep it working efficiently, ensuring ongoing safety and performance.

Improved Pool Performance: The AVSC system does not just prioritize safety but also works to improve overall pool performance by ensuring consistent water flow and circulation. This can help with efficient filtration and even improve water clarity.
