Keeping Your Family Safe

Safety should always be a priority when it comes to pools. Here are some essential safety tips to ensure your family enjoys the pool safely.

Supervision

Always supervise children when they are in or near the pool. Designate a responsible adult to watch over swimmers, especially during parties or gatherings.

Fencing

Install a fence around your pool to prevent unauthorized access. The fence should be at least four feet high and have a self-closing gate.

Life-Saving Equipment

Keep life-saving equipment, such as life rings and a reaching pole, near the pool. Ensure everyone knows where to find them in case of an emergency.

Safety first, fun second!
