Dual drains only eliminate one type of entrapment due to strong suction. However, they do not eliminate the chance of long hair getting stuck in the main drain. Nothing can prevent that (except short hair) so don't get a false sense of security.

As to other problems, main drains are the hardest items to fix but on a AG pool, they are a little easier to fix although you will still need to drain the pool so that is not a huge issue. But knowing what I do now, I would never put a MD in residential IG pool again let alone an AG pool which makes even less sense.


I figure on leaving the pump on low almost 24/7
That really isn't required either. There is an article in my signature on run time that you should read.
