Water and Pool Safety

Watters Aquatech Pools & Spas of Las Vegas invites you to join in the celebration of May as Water Safety Month! In recognition of the need for public education in water safety, May has been set aside as a time to focus on water safety. Aquatic centers, parks and recreation centers, and cities across the nation are participating by offering educational water safe classes, public service announcements, and the distribution of water safety information.

Water Safety in Las Vegas

You can participate by educating yourself and your family in water safety practices both on the open water and around pools and spas. Make it a goal to learn how to swim and to teach your children to swim, if they don’t already know how to do so. Take time to inspect your pool and spa and make sure you have the proper pool safety equipment installed. Upgrade where needed.

Keep Your Las Vegas Pool Safe

Watters Aquatech, the award-winning Las Vegas pool contractor, offers a variety of options to help you maintain a safe pool and spa environment. Adding a fence of the proper height around your pool and spa with specially constructed gates is recommended. Make sure that you have the proper pool and spa covers installed. Also, pool alarms on the gates and doors of the house with access to the pool will aid in alerting you that a child may have gone into the pool area and needs supervision. There are also special in-pool alarms available for an added measure of safety.

It’s May and Water Safety Month is here. Now’s a great time to take advantage of the services offered, educate yourself and your family, and check out the safety of your pool and spa!

Keeping an eye on your swimming pool water level is an important task for any pool owner (not as important as swimming, of course, but still very important.) With an in-ground pool, the water level can be too high, and it can also be too low, and each can mean different things. Watters Aquatech Pools of Las Vegas, NV is the Premier Las Vegas pool builder that has built hundreds of pools in the area.

If your pool water level is too high, it can affect the ability of your skimmer to collect debris from the pool and suck it into the filtration system. Things floating on the surface may float above the skimmer opening and hit the side of the pool. It’s important to keep the swimming pool water at the proper height in order for the system to function the right way.

If the water level is too low, it can actually cause damage to the system, in addition to resulting in a dirty pool. Air getting sucked into the system due to a low pool water level can actually, in some cases, cause the system’s motor to become burned out.

More importantly, when pool water level becomes lower over time or drops more than a quarter-inch a day can be a sign of a crack. This is something that you will want to fix immediately. Even though many Las Vegas pool builders do good work, cracks can be a fact of life with swimming pools, and can be easily fixed if dealt with quickly.

Watters Aquatech Pools can help you deal with these issues and many more as a great partner for ensuring a beautiful and high-functioning family pool.
