Pool safety is important to protect children, loved ones, friends and pets from potential injuries. Besides following recommended guidelines and drowning prevention best practices, using effective pool safety barriers (more on that below), you also want to ensure the area surrounding your pool is safe to prevent injuries and accidental falls. Keeping your pool area safe, dry, free from pool toys and clutter, and following proper pool safety rules and regulations can help you prevent common accidents.
