7 Tips To Ensure Everyone Stays Safe Around Your Concrete Pool
Having a concrete pool on your property can bring you many advantages such as adding value, and the no small matter of you and your family having fun in that pool. However, concrete pools also means that you have a responsibility to ensure that anyone who is in or near your pool is safe at all times.
We are not saying that you need to go to lifeguard school, although it would not do you any harm, but, instead, you can implement a number of safety measures and protocols so that anyone using the pool, be that friends or family, do not come to harm. Here are those safety measures:
#1 Install A Safety Fence Around The Pool
There has been many a tragedy caused by children managing to get onto a property that was not their own home, entering a pool, and sadly getting into trouble with no one around to help them, or even realising they were there This is why we suggest that you install fencing or some other kind of barrier around your pool area, or your property as a whole.
#2 Automatic Safety Shutters
Having safety shutters that close across the top of the pool means that no adult, child, or even a pet can gain access to the pool when there is nobody to supervise them. These normally operate by simply pressing a button, and ideally one which incorporates a key switch so that no one can open the shutters without your knowledge.
