GOETAS is recalling about 2,500 pool drain covers because they do not meet federal safety standards for entrapment protection. The recalled products are white, plastic, main pool drain covers that are approximately 7 inches high with 9-inch diameter top grates. These covers were sold exclusively on Amazon.com from March 2022 through July 2024. Consumers should immediately stop using pools with these covers and contact the manufacturer for a full refund. Amazon is also reaching out to known purchasers directly.
The drain covers violate the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act (VGBA), creating a risk that swimmers or bathers could become trapped underwater by the drain's suction. While no injuries have been reported, this defect poses a serious drowning hazard.
Pool owners/operators and consumers should immediately stop using pools with the recalled pool drain cover; and remove, replace and dispose of the recalled drain covers. Take a photo of the recalled cover and send it to the recalling firm by email at Atlaspool@163.com to receive a full refund. Ensure all pools and spas have Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act (VGBA) compliant drain covers and teach children to stay away from drains. Amazon is contacting all known purchasers directly.
Measures approximately 7 inches high; top grates measure approximately 9 inches in diameter.
