Maintain Healthy Water

The first half of water safety is dealing with the health of your water. You need to regularly monitor your water conditions to ensure it is safe for people to swim in. Follow your pool maintenance steps and have your water tested on a consistent basis. Check the pH levels and stick to your routine of using the proper chemicals for balancing your water conditions. Different pool setups include different requirements for keeping the water safe and healthy. Always consult with your pool professionals about which chemicals to use and the correct steps for adding them to your water.

Prevent Accidents

In addition to maintaining the condition of your pool water, the other side of water safety is preventing and limiting the potential accidents. There are some basic rules that should be observed by everyone that is invited to your pool. The first and most important rule is to never leave children unattended. Always keeps an eye on children both inside and outside of the pool.

You should also pay attention to the condition of your decking. Decking can get slippery very quickly after the first few swimmers get out of the pool.Make sure everyone is aware that there is no running near the pool and to watch their step when walking across a slippery surface.

It may also be a food idea to keep certain safety equipment nearby or even think about having an alarm system installed. A safety net is a basic piece of equipment that is affordable and easy to store. For some additional money, an alarm system offers more protection. These alarm systems will alert you with anyone who goes into the pool, which can be especially helpful when children are present.

Follow these tips, and any other maintenance steps recommended by yourpool company, to ensure your pool is ready for swimming all summer long. Also remember to follow the proper steps for closing up your pool at the end of the year including keeping a cover on your pool when it is not in use and correctly lowering the water level of your pool to prevent freezing and cracking.
