NEW FROM CMP: POOL DEFENDER™ WATER BOND SKIMMER

IN GROUND POOL WATER BONDING: NOW MADE EASIER
Easily meet water bonding building code requirements with these brand new in ground skimmers with an integrated water bond. An electrical current can be generated in a pool from multiple sources, even when the pool is not running. This current must be controlled to meet new building codes and to prevent corrosive damage to metal pool components. Pool Defender™ provides an easier path for electrical current, protecting expensive metal pool components. When properly bonded, the Inline Pool Defender™ can help protect the entire pool from galvanic corrosion.

EVERY POOL NEEDS A DEFENDER™
A perfect solution for pool safety and water bonding. CMP is bringing Pool Defender™ Technology to in ground skimmers with the new integrated water bond. Most pools are water bonded at the pool light, but this isn’t always an option. Since 2008 the National Electrical Code (NEC) has mandated that pool water must be electrically bonded, not just metals in the structure of the pool itself. Easily meet code requirements with these brand new in ground skimmers with an integrated water bond.
