Sterling Pools strives to encourage safety around water and prevent drowning and other water-related injuries this summer.
We love to keep your pool looking beautiful, but most importantly, we want your pool and surrounding area to be safe. Here are some pool safety tips:
- Have constant adult supervision when children are in or around the water.
- Install an independent fence or barrier surrounding the pool. Fences should be 5 feet high, and gates should be self-closing and self-latching.
- Install other safety protection, such as alarms on doors.
- During social situations, assign an adult to watch over the pool.
- Don’t keep toys around or in the pool.
- Learn CPR.
There are a number of resources around the Valley offering free or low-cost water safety classes and events. Phoenix Children’s Hospital and the City of Mesa are great resources for CPR classes and water safety programs.
Sterling Pools is offering a free pool safety inspection during the month of June. To schedule your inspection, call Mike Sterling at (480) 241-4206, or visit our Facebook page.
