Inspection summary
Aloft Calgary University - Swimming Pool has been inspected 23 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since April 12, 2024. The most recent inspection, on October 13, 2026, recorded 3 infractions.
None of the 23 inspections on record were free of infractions. In the past 12 months there were 5 inspections with 15 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality and Food temperature control.
Recent inspections have recorded fewer infractions than earlier ones, so the record is improving.
What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people using the facility. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly cause illness or injury, such as water that is not properly treated.
Pool and spa water qualityHigher risk
For pools, spas and splash pads, inspectors test disinfectant levels, pH and water clarity, and check safety equipment. Water that is not properly treated can spread skin, ear and stomach infections.
Recorded 34 times across 20 separate inspections, most recently on October 13, 2026. For example:
Is the bacteriological quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Non-Critical)?
Food temperature controlHigher risk
Inspectors check that anything that has to be kept at a set temperature, such as chilled or hot food, or equipment like sterilizers, stays in its safe range and that accurate thermometers are on hand. With food, temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning.
Recorded 17 times across 17 separate inspections, most recently on October 13, 2026. For example:
Is the pool maintained in a clean and sanitary condition, good repair and are temperatures being properly regulated?
Food safety training and certificationLower risk
Many jurisdictions require trained pool operators and certified lifeguards. These findings mean required training, certification or staffing records were missing at the time of inspection.
Recorded 17 times across 17 separate inspections, most recently on March 10, 2025. For example:
Does the pool have adequate written policies, plans and posted rules and safety information to ensure that the pool is operating in a safe manner?
