Lounging around the pool and swimming are popular summer activities that adults and especially children love after school is over. They’re a great way to keep cool on canine summer days, but they can also be dangerous if pool dwellers aren’t closely watched by adults. In-ground and above-ground pools are the two most popular types on the market today.
Above ground pools are starting to become less and less popular these days because they require stairs and sometimes even a deck to access the pool, which can lead to injuries if children are left unsupervised. Permanent pools are easily accessible because they are level with the ground and no one has to climb a ladder to get to the water. A gate can be placed in front of the stairs to an above ground pool that can prevent children from entering the water when no one is looking.
Whether a home has a built-in or portable bathing area, the property owner is legally responsible for having a fence erected around their property to keep homeless children away from the pool. Landscaping can easily be done around inground pools, which can increase the property value of the land where the pool is located. If you like to host summer pool parties at night, pools can provide a lot of excitement for people as they have indoor lighting that makes it easier to swim once the sun goes down.
People who want to swim at night should have lights that help illuminate the interior.
