Safety of all users
In the pool, young children and persons who cannot swim must wear a flotation device (vest or arm bands).
Do not allow a child who cannot swim enter the pool alone unless wearing a life-vest or armbands. Access
to the pool should be strictly prohibited unless these precautions are taken.
Reinforce supervision when there are several users in the pool. Keep a pole and / or a life ring beside the
pool for use in the event of a problem. Jumping should be prohibited, as should running and horseplay.
Safety instructions that apply to all users are as follows:
•
do not dive
•
do not walk or stand on the coping
•
do not leave the pool empty without protection.
Ladders and steps should only be used to enter and leave the swimming pool. They should not be used
for any other purpose that could impinge on safety.
Keep the water clear and clean during the pool season. Do not allow access to the pool is the filtration
system or systems are compromised, or while maintenance is being carried out.
While the pool is not use, it is a very good idea to cover it with a winter tarp, correctly installed and fastened
in position. In addition to its primary function, the tarp makes the pool less attractive.
