Swimming is great summer fun for all ages, however, if you own a pool, there are a few safety reminders to ensure that everyone can relax and have a good time. Pool enclosures also offer a dimensional look to your backyard living space by separating the pool from the rest of the yard.
With a pool enclosures, you save money especially if you have an outdoor pool exposed to bacteria or dead insects, falling leaves, dust, dirt, and other impurities. This installation keeps your pool shielded against these intruders; thus, making your pool well-maintained.
1. Lifesaver Gear.
Keep a few lifesaver donuts and other flotation devices near the water in case of emergency. And when persons with limited swimming skills are in the pool, throw a preserver or blow-up flotation device into the water for easy access.
2. CPR.
Someone on the pool premises should be trained in emergency CPR. These classes may be taken at community centers and are geared for the layman to sustain life until an emergency vehicle arrives. Persons with young children should be aware of the basic CPR techniques and can be certified in one day.
3. Electricity.
Everybody loves some music at the pool party, but be sure you have kept all electrical equipment away from the poolside wet areas. Radios should be stored high and dry on a table or shelf and never touched with wet hands.
4. Temperature Changes.
It is not safe to subject the body to rapid temperature changes, such as swimming in cool waters, then plunging into a hot tub. Take your choice of which activity is to be first, then allow yourself some time in between to regulate your body temperature before taking a dip elsewhere.
5. Pool Enclosures.
If you have young children that are not able to understand language and the importance of pool safety, you may wish to install a gate around your pool area. The gates are functional and fashionable, keeping the perimeters sealed off from youngsters and pets.
