Step-by-Step Guide to Using Your Deck Drain Cleaning Tool

Cleaning your pool deck drains doesn’t have to be complicated. Follow these simple steps to keep your drains clear and functioning well:

1. Be sure the water has a place to go on the outside of your patio. Many problems with drains being plugged up start because the deck drain has been plugged up on the outside of the patio with mulch, plants, or maybe the grass is now the same height as the top of the patio. Remember, the water needs a place to go when it gets outside your patio.

2. Remove any visible debris: Use a broom or your hands (wear gloves!) to clear leaves and large debris from the drain surface.

3. Trace the template of the cleaning access tool: Put the Pool Deck Drain Janitor template in the proper location and centered from side to side, and trace the outline with a pencil or sharpie.

4. Use a Dremel tool to cut access hole: Cut to the inside of the lines you just drew with the template.

5. Remove all the pieces that fall into the drain. Using a pair of needle nose pliers, remove any parts of the cut out pieces from the bottom of your drain. you don't want them to get stuck inside the drain when you begin to flush out the debris.

6. Flush with water: Use a garden hose or pressure washer to rinse out the accumulated debris, directing water through the drain.

7. Repeat if necessary: It is not uncommon to have to flush the drain many times to get it completely cleaned out. You need to start in the center and chase the dirt/debris down the length of your drains. It can sometimes take several hours of flushing to complete the job.

8. Replace the drain cleaning access tool: Once clean, snap the Pool Deck Drain Janitor back into place until you need to clean your drains again in 3 months, 6 months, or yearly,,,, you decide!

   
   

Regular cleaning using this method will prevent blockages and keep your pool deck safe and dry.

Tips for Maintaining Your Pool Deck Drains Year-Round

Keeping your drains clean is not a one-time job. Here are some practical tips to maintain your pool deck drains throughout the year:

• Schedule regular cleanings: Aim to clean your drains at least once a month, especially during fall when leaves are abundant.

• Avoid harsh chemicals: Use gentle cleaning methods to protect your drainage system and surrounding surfaces.

• Educate family and guests: Encourage everyone to avoid throwing trash or large debris near the pool deck.
