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 2 times on August 6, 2026. For example: Free available chlorine (FAC) or total bromine within range of 5 ppm to 10 ppm.

• 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 once on August 6, 2026. For example: Safe storage and handling of all chemicals.

• Permits, records and postingLower risk

  Operating permits, water-test logs, posted bather rules and emergency procedures. Daily test logs are how operators show the water was checked and treated between inspections.

  Recorded once on August 6, 2026. For example: Daily records are kept and signed each operating day.

• 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 once on August 6, 2026. For example: Public spa and its equipment maintained in a safe and sanitary condition and in proper working order.
