When unsure where your pool overflow ends up, talk to the original contractors for the pool project. Pool overflow will typically go into your home’s drainage system or directly out into the city’s systems. The excess water can be recycled in a tank and reused for high-end pool constructions when it’s time to top up the pool again. Where no overflow drains are available, you have to create one as soon as possible. For overflow drains that won’t require manual intervention to get rid of excess water from the pool, you need to consult any qualified swimming pool contractors around you.

With over 40 years in the pool industry in Phoenix, Arizona, Overflow Pool Repair is the clear choice for all your overflow pool swimming pool construction and swimming pool repair needs. The biggest problem pool builders that are unfamiliar with constructing these types of pools run into are the hydraulics. These pools require underground tanks and special electronic water levelers. Sometimes there’s no elaborate system draining your pool overflow. A simple pipe connected to the pool drain and channeled to a corner of your yard can do the job.

Simply connect a garden hose to the spigot, take the other end of the hose to the drain, open up the spigot and the pump should do the work. If your pump has a drainage spigot, this will be even easier than siphoning the water. Lastly, you will take the covered end to the drain and open the hose up to start emptying water. But first you will need to figure out what drainage area you need to use and if it can handle the amount of water you are about to remove. Also check your city regulations to see if they have any specific rules regarding pool drainage.

The pipes from the drain are hidden away from sight and channeled into the drainage pit—which is typically up to 3 ft (0.91 m) deep and wide. If your swimming pool is one of those designed with a filtration tank that can hold and recycle excess water, the pool overflow will go to the tank. The tank’s filtration system will then process the water to get rid of debris and bacteria before it is pumped back into the pool when necessary. The traditional overflow pool is made with a whole perimeter overflow channel.

If the pool area doesn’t have proper drainage, you may face serious flooding problems. This is especially true if the construction is such that the water can get into your home or the garage. If your pool overflows and the situation is not quickly stopped, you may have to spend up to a week rebalancing the pool’s chemistry. The rebalancing process will start with shocking the pool with chlorine and then testing the pH with a pool test kit.
