Having a pool can be a big responsibility. You know that, by all the care and maintenance it takes to keep it running well, but also by keeping the people who use it safe. Here are several ways you can keep your friends and family safe around your pool.

  • Locked gates. Keeping your pool area gated with a lock, will ensure that you know when people are accessing your pool. Knowing is half the battle and keeping that lock out of a child’s reach will also guarantee a peace of mind.
  • Safety gear ready at hand. Having a life float to throw someone can be a literal life saver when the need arises. Also having your phone at the poolside in a watertight plastic bag will save precious moments of searching for it, in case of an emergency.
  • Non-slip surfaces. Keeping the area around your pool slip free can keep someone from falling and getting hurt or accidentally falling into the pool. Sharing some safety tips, like no running, can help you and your guests enjoy their time by the pool.
  • Know your pool guests. Whether your pool guest has never taken a swim or is a professional diver, you are going to want to know so you can keep them safe. This will help you be more aware of the needs and safety tips you need to share as they enjoy using your pool.

Keep these tips in mind as you entertain your friends and family at your pool. Have fun, but as a host be aware of pool safety issues that may arise. You want everyone to have a great time together, but you also want to make sure everyone is safe for your peace of mind and theirs. Talk to your local pool professional about options you can add to your pool to make it safe for everyone to enjoy.

Keeping your pool clean can be a simple task, especially if you do your regularly scheduled checks.  Cleaning your pool is an important part of protecting it and helping it maintain it’s life and safety. You will want to follow these simple tips, so your pool will stay clean and be of good use to you for years to come.

  • Cover your pool when it is not going to be used for a while. This will help keep outside blowing debris, leaves, and twigs out of the water, keeping it clean, while also protecting from possible damage.
  • Check the filter. Some filters work better if you let them go for longer, but make sure you are checking it the right amount. You definitely don’t want an overfull filter. That could cause some major problems.
  • Skim the pool. Use your leaf skimmer net to get any floating debris out of your pool. Empty the strainer basket, so that it can continue to do its job well too.
  • Vacuum the pool. When your pool is getting a lot of use, lots of foot traffic can bring in lots of dirt. You may also have other debris at the bottom the pool that the vacuum can suck right up and make the swimmers feet happier.
  • Check the pool chemicals. You don’t want a bacteria fest growing in your pool. Make sure to check the PH levels regularly to make sure your pool water is safe to swim in.

Following these tips and keeping your pool clean from debris, will keep your pool stay cleaner longer. To make it easier on yourself, hire a professional pool service for regular cleanings.
