Index

In some areas, it may be necessary to acquire permits and have

inspections on your splash pad installation.

Please verify the permit and inspection requirements with your

local city, county, state or other municipalities before you begin

the installation of your splash pad.

Some municipalities may require a design with specific details.

Rain Deck has an experienced design team that can assist with the

design and layout of your splash pad. Please call, email or visit

our website for details.

For a commercial splash pad, please call us at 888-445-RAIN.

Commercial splash pads almost always have additional

requirements!

etc).

 4” drain pipe and fittings for drain line(s).

 1 ½” schedule 40 PVC pipe (approximately 40’ to 80’ depending on

distance from tank to equipment).

 1 ½” schedule 40 fittings (elbows, couplings, 45’s).

 PVC primer and glue.

 Standard irrigation box for tank lid and additional irrigation box for

manifold unless wall mounted.

Kit Parts List

The Rain Deck splash pad kit must be powered by a supply circuit that

is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). A GFCI is

generally a minimum code requirement. A GFCI is required by most building codes and should be

provided by the installer and must be tested before each use. Installer should consult the GFCI

manufacturers’ instructions for correct installation and operation. All electrical components

should be properly bonded per national and local codes.

ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST CONFORM TO NATIONAL AND

LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES AND STANDARDS. A QUALIFIED,

LICENSED ELECTRICIAN IS REQUIRED TO PERFORM ELECTRICAL

CONNECTIONS.

DANGER – RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Electrical

components for the Rain Deck splash pad kit should be Installed at least 10 feet (3m)

away from the splash pad surface. All electrical components should be properly

bonded per national and local codes. Do not permit any electrical apparatuses (ie. Radio, TV

etc.) within 10 feet (3m) of splash pad surface.

EXTREME CAUTION – Children should ALWAYS be supervised by a

responsible adult while using the Rain Deck splash pad. The splash pad drain

should never be plugged or restricted allowing for pooling of water on the splash pad area. The

surface of ANY Rain Deck splash pad installation should be designed to NEVER accumulate

more than 2 inches of water in the event the drain should be plugged or restricted. Due to this

requirement, larger splash pads may require more than one drain to meet proper slope guidelines.

CHEMICAL SAFETY – To ensure a safe water play experience, the water chemistry in

the Rain Deck holding tank should be checked before each use. Ensure that the water contains 3

-5 ppm of chlorine OR bromine and check that the UV ozone generator is properly working.

The UV Ozone generator DOES NOT replace the need for chlorine or bromine but must be used

together for optimal water sanitation. NEVER mix chlorine and bromine.

Warnings

Always check before digging to be sure the site is free from utility lines

or other obstructions. We recommend that you contact a local utility

detection company or call 811 within the United states to locate a

certified utility detection company in your area. It is recommended that

you spray paint the splash pad location, valve location, tank location,

lumbing runs, electrical runs and equipment location before

construction begins.

Excavate the splash pad area so that your finished concrete slab is at

desired elevation. Keep in mind that the concrete slab must be a

minimum of 4” thick or per local codes and guidelines.

Grade all other areas around the splash pad site so that water not

captured within the splash pad area will drain away from the splash pad.

Depending on site conditions,

other grading may be necessary.

Your Splash Pad Product and Installation Resource

Pre-Site Grading

Your Rain Deck electronic controller is designed to accommodate up to 8 zones.

Each zone (solenoid) will accommodate 1, 2 or 3 spray jets. Here is a simple

diagram illustrating the plumbing schematic for a 12 nozzle splash pad:

Trench each supply line a minimum of 6” below grade. Use 90º elbows to stub up

½” pipe at desired nozzle locations. We recommend using ½” flex pipe for stub-

bing up. This will allow for adjustability when setting the Rain Deck housings. If

your finished splash pad surface is concrete, you will need to set your nozzles be-

fore pouring concrete. However, if a surface material will be applied over the con-

crete (ie. Rubber, lace), we recommend using a 4” sleeve at the nozzle locations

and setting the Rain Deck housings as a separate step after the concrete has been

poured. SEE THE SECTION TITLED “HOUSING/NOZZLE INSTALLATION”

FOR DETAILS.

Be creative! Locate the spray nozzles in a pattern

that works best for you. Take caution to keep the

spray nozzles a minimum of 24” from the splash

pad edge. All plumbing between the manifold and

the spray nozzles is 1/2” or 3/4”, schedule 40 or

equivalent PVC pipe and fittings unless otherwise

recommended by Rain Deck.

SPRAY NOZZLES

Before covering any plumbing with hardscape or concrete, cap all spray

lines and pressure test the system. It is recommended the system be

pressurized between 20psi and 25psi for a minimum of 2 hours. Maintain

a pressurized system during the concrete phase of construction to be sure

no damage is done to the pipes.
