Check Your Pool

PoolWerx Dubbo owners and current Franchisee's of the year, Brett and Jenny Singleton are proud supporters of the RLSSA 'Keep Watch' program. We asked them what pool owners should be looking out for as the temperature rises.

With warmer weather already upon us pool owners are busy preparing for the upcoming summer season, and now is the perfect time to take a few extra steps to ensure time spent by the pool, and away from it, is as safe as possible for you, your family and friends.

We are working closely with our clients to remind them of the simple checks they can make to keep their home pool safe by following the RLSSA 'Home Pool Safety' program. With the easy-to-download checklist our clients can control, check, fix and maintain their home pool this summer to help prevent child drownings.

In addition to conducting water health checks pool owners need to inspect their pool gate latches, look for any gaps that may be starting to appear under fences and remove any objects that could be used to climb into the pool area.

The consequences of a small child being able to enter your pool enclosure through a gap in a fence are often tragic and can be prevented by simply taking a few extra steps before summer officially arrives.
