Your pool is designed for years of pleasurable, safe family fun. But when used incorrectly, a swimming pool can
be dangerous. To insure your pool is used safely you must observe the following safety precautions:
1.
Do not dive, do not jump, no rough play, no running or pushing.
2.
Do not walk on the top rail. It can be slippery and is not a walkway.
3.
Be sure to install all safety labels provided with your pool according to the safety instructions.
4.
Keep a 50’ safety rope with a flotation buoy with an outside diameter of 15” accessible in a prominent
area by your pool.
5.
Post near all entrances to the pool area a list of telephone numbers for the following:
a.
Local police
b. Local fire department
c.
Local rescue unit
d. Local ambulance service
e.
Local hospital
f.
911 emergency number, if available
6.
Provide fencing or an enclosure which is independent of the house as a closure around the entire pool
area. The fencing must be made of durable material, a minimum of 4’ high from ground level and with
closures with self-latching locks to make the pool inaccessible to toddlers and uninvited guests. Make
sure the gate is always closed. Be sure to follow local building code requirements for load capacity and
fencing if using an aftermarket or homebuilt deck.
7.
Check with your local town or municipality in regard to obtaining a building permit and/or an electrical
permit. The installer shall follow the regulations for set backs, barriers, devices and other conditions.
8.
All electrical outlet connections should be a minimum of 5’ from the outside perimeter of the wall of the
pool. From 5’-10’ there should be either a fixed connection (outlet box) or twist lock connection with a
GFCI. Connect power cords to a 3-wire grounding-type outlet only.
9.
Severe electrical shock could result if you install your pump or filter on a deck. They could fall into the
water causing severe shock or electrocution. Do not install on a deck or other surface at, above or
slightly below the top ledge of the pool.
10. Do not sit, stand or climb on the pump and filter or any part of the pool structure. Components such as
the filtration system, pumps and heater must be positioned so as to prevent their being used as a means
of access to the pool by young children.
11. Never drink alcoholic beverages or use any intoxicants which could hinder your judgment and reflexes.
12. Never use the pool alone. All children must be supervised continuously.
13. Do not use pool if bottom is not clearly visible. At night, sufficient lighting must be available. It is the pool
owners’ sole responsibility to provide adequate lighting for the pool bottom, safety signs and walkways,
which exceeds minimum standards of the IES of North America.
14. Be sure that all toys, chairs and tables or similar objects that a young child could climb on be at least 4’
from the pool.
15. Do not use pool during electrical or rain storms.
16. See available Association of Spa and Pool Professionals (APSP) publications for more tips on pool safety.
