About 1,040 TopHomer pool drain covers have been recalled due to violations of the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act (VGBA), posing entrapment and drowning hazards (CPSC Recall Notice, No. 26-154 (Dec. 18, 2025)).
Incidents and injuries. No incidents or injuries have been reported.
Product description. The recalled product is an 8-inch TopHomer-branded pool drain cover made of white ABS plastic. The top grate measures 7.2 inches in diameter, and the bottom mounting plate is 8 inches in diameter. Markings on the grate include “Listed suction fitting,” “SP-1053-B,” and “88D9 148 GPM.” Instructions to secure the grate with screws are printed on the outer ring.
The drain covers were manufactured in China and were sold on Amazon by TopHomerUS between August 2024 and October 2025 for $15 to $26.
Remedy. Consumers should immediately stop using pools equipped with the recalled drain covers. To obtain a refund, remove the drain cover, take a photo of it, and email the image to Tophomer.recall@outlook.com. Pool owners are advised to ensure all pools and spas have VGBA-compliant drain covers and teach children to avoid drains.
