Proper Safety Products for Public Pools


Does your facility have all necessary safety gear? Regulations vary by state, but here are a few products that your facility should have for your pool area.



Ring Buoy/Cabinets:

            Ring Buoy’s are required for most public pools. Our ring buoys are USCG approved and are manufactured under strict codes. Some laws state that your ring buoys must be in orange.




           
            Ring Buoy Cabinet’s hold the ring buoy’s in an unbreakable clear acrylic door. These units are helpful in storing your ring buoy’s and can be easily hung on a wall or on a fence with your own hardware. These cabinets protect the buoy but still allow for easy access.







Rescue Pole w/ Hook:

            Rescue poles are a necessity for any pool area. You will want to purchase the rescue poles that come with the hook. Using a telescopic pole in a rescue situation is extremely dangerous. It’s recommended to use a straight a pole that is either bolted between pieces or one piece.



Throw Lines:

            Our throw rope can easily be used with our ring buoys available. These throw ropes are OSHA compliant, and are available in many sizes. Please note that most throw lines need to be 1.5 times the width of your pool. Every ring buoy should also have a throw line already attached to it.






Proper Signage:
            Every state has specific rules as to which pool & spa signage is needed. Many states can either fine you or close the pool if your signage does not comply with local regulations. Most standard pool rules do not comply with most state regulations. 





First Aid Kits:
            First Aid kits are a necessity for any facility. Our new Pool First Aid Kits are clearly marked in bold with a red cross for easy visibility. The kit has two brackets so the kit can be easily mounted to the wall. Made especially for the pool deck, the metal carrying case is waterproof and dustproof. Comes in four different sizes.
