LOOP LOC CUSTOM COVER MEASURING INSTRUCTIONS If your pool is very geometric, or a variation of a rectangle, or oval with known radius measurements, A-B measurements may not be necessary. If your pool is not of a "freeform" design, with free flowing curves, perimeter measurements may suffice*. Draw a sketch of your pool and label all corners of the pool with letters A-?, and provide exact INSIDE of POOL measurements from A to B, B to C, C-D...... Then provide 2 or more cross dimensions, i.e. A-D or B-H; for example. We should be able to price it with this much. Loop-Loc may require A-B measurements for the manufacture of the cover. If your pool is Freeform, i.e. not a variation on a rectangle; triangulation measurements (A-B measurements) are necessary to reproduce your exact pool measurements on Loop-Loc's computers. Please provide INSIDE dimensions (the innermost edge of the pool's coping). Please write numbers legibly and dark so they fax well. Note any non-removable obstructions within 2' of pool's edge and width of available decking surrounding pool. BEGIN WITH A FREE HAND SKETCH OF THE POOL ON THE GRID INDICATE INSIDE POOL DIMENSIONS. INCLUDE DECK AREA, PLANTERS AND ANY OBSTRUCTION WITHIN 3' OF THE WATERLINE. A PHOTO IS NEEDED WHEN ROCKS, WATERFALLS, RAISED WALLS, SPAS OR ANYTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY EXISTS. ESTABLISH 2 POINTS, "A & B" WITH "A" ON THE LEFT AS SHOWN BELOW. MARK THESE POINTS IN THE GROUND WITH LONG SCREWDRIVERS. "A-B" LINE MUST BE AT LEAST 3' AWAY FROM THE POOL'S EDGE AND 2/3 THE LENGTH OF THE POOL; 20-25' IS TYPICAL. THE A & B POINTS MUST NEVER INTERSECT THE POOL LINE. INDICATE LOCATION OF A & B POINTS, AND THEIR DISTANCE APART ON THE DRAWING. ONCE AGAIN, A LINE DRAWN STRAIGHT THROUGH POINTS A-B MUST NOT INTERSECT THE EDGE OF THE POOL ON EITHER END OF THE LINE. USING CHALK OR DUCT TAPE, MARK AND NUMBER THE POINTS ALONG THE INSIDE EDGE OF THE POOL AT APPROXIMATELY 3' INTERVALS. MARK AND NUMBER ALL LADDERS, HANDRAILS, GRABRAILS, SLIDE LEGS, ROCKS, STEPS, FILL SPOUTS AND DIVING BOARD STAND IF THEY ARE NOT REMOVABLE, OR IF THEY ARE WITHIN 18" OF THE POOL'S EDGE. MARK AND NUMBER BOTH SIDES OF A SPA WALL AND SPILLWAY, AS SHOWN BELOW. 1'-2' INTERVALS SHOULD BE USED IN SMALL OR TIGHT RADIUS AREAS AND RAISED WALL AREAS. STRAIGHT RUNS OF THE POOL EDGE CAN USE 4' INTERVALS. INDICATE LOCATION OF ALL POINTS AND NUMBER THEM ON THE DRAWING. AN AVERAGE SIZE POOL MAY NEED ONLY 35-45 POINTS. ROUND OUT YOUR MEASUREMENTS TO THE NEAREST INCH (do not write a measurement as 34' 5-1/2", but rather, 34'5) MEASUREMENTS ARE NOW TAKEN FROM POINT "A" TO POINT #1, THEN TO POINT #2, AND ALL THE WAY AROUND THE POOL (TO PT 66 IN THE EXAMPLE BELOW). THEN MEASURE FROM POINT "B" TO SAME POINT #1 AND THEN #2, AS YOU DID FROM POINT "A". MEASUREMENTS ARE WRITTEN IN THE COLUMNS ON PAGE 2. TAKE MEASUREMENTS BETWEEN 2-4 KNOWN POINTS TO RECORD POINT TO POINT CROSS DIMENSIONS. RECORD THESE IN THE AREA PROVIDED ON PAGE 2. (for example: point 2 - 32 = 36'1", or point 11 - 47 = 15'3") *NOTE: Loop-Loc makes the determination of the measurements they need to fabricate a cover. A pool that may be fairly geometric may still require A-B measurements for the cover fabrication.
