SwimrRight Pool Service contractors in Scottsdale, AZ explain swimming pool alarm benefits 

Any time you hear about a child falling into a swimming pool and being injured it sends a sliver of fear into the hearts of parents every where. If you own a swimming pool, there are safety rules and regulations in place, put there by municipal governing agencies that are designed to offer protection and keep your family safe from harm. A swimming pool fence, the pool service contractors from SwimRight Pools explain is one of the first and best safety tools you can invest in — in fact, they are required for all pool construction projects.

There are various types of in ground swimming pool alarms that you can invest in in addition to having a pool fence, a locked gate and a pool safety cover and they include:

  1. A door alarm. This alarm will sound if someone attempts to leave the house and go into the backyard where the swimming pool is. Ideal for homes with curious young children.
  2. A water disturbance alarm floats on the surface of the pool and will sound an alert when the surface of the water is breached.The best inground swimming pool alarm
  3. There are wristbands that you can put on your children or even your small pets and an alarm sounds when the band gets wet.
  4. Motion-activated security cameras. These can sound an alarm as well as turn on a backyard light and even send an alert to a computer that’s in the house or a smart phone.
Each of these alarms works in different ways and should be chosen based on your family’s unique needs. How can you decide which type alarm is best for your family? Here are some things to think about:
  • Doubling up on safety and security measures just makes good sense. Have your fence, a pool cover and a floating alarm or a door alarm or a wristband or any combination.
  • You need to test the type alarm you invest in to assure it will work if the need arises.
  • Your children should understand the rules of the house and that means that no one is ever allowed to be in the pool alone. That is a rule that should never be broken as that can add to any safety measures you install in your pool.
