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 28 times across 16 separate inspections, most recently on November 15, 2024. For example:
The pool combined chlorine level is properly maintained
Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk
Pool chemicals such as chlorine and acid must be labelled, stored apart from each other and handled safely. Mixing them by mistake can release toxic gas, so storage and handling problems are treated seriously.
Recorded 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on July 12, 2019. For example:
Chemicals are stored in a safe manner and location
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 once on July 13, 2016. For example:
The pool water temperature is properly maintained
Equipment and utensilsLower risk
Pumps, filters, chemical feeders and safety equipment such as lifebuoys, reaching poles and first-aid kits must be present and working. Missing safety equipment can matter a great deal in an emergency.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on July 12, 2019. For example:
Adequate pool supervision and/or safety equipment is provided
