Deluxe Main Drains with Adjustable Plaster Collar (Vinyl/Fiberglass)
Hayward main drains set the standard in quality and value. These heavy-duty drains are injection-molded of ABS, which resists chemical attack that leads to "yellowing".This Hayward main Drain can be used on Residential or Commercial applications; also new construction or replacement covers. Please note that Hayward now offers these only as a 2-pack due to regulations that require pools to have two main drains.

Hi Larry, this would be the correct main drain for an above ground pool, so you are on the right track with this item.

Hi Steven, The law is that a pool has two main drains, this is for safety. By having two drains you have less suction on each drain eliminating the likelihood of someone getting entrapped on the drain due to too high of suction.
