Official record from Alberta →

Inspection summary

Eastern Irrigation District Aquatic Centre - Wavepool has been inspected 40 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since November 1, 2023. The most recent inspection, on July 17, 2026, found no infractions.

10 of 40 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 11 inspections with 9 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality and Chemicals and toxic substances.

The last 2 inspections in a row found no infractions. The number of infractions per inspection has stayed roughly the same over time.

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 21 times across 19 separate inspections, most recently on May 17, 2026. For example: Is the bacteriological quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Critical)?

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on February 23, 2026. For example: Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Non-Critical)?

  • 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 18 times across 18 separate inspections, most recently on February 14, 2026. 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?

      • The EID pool does not have a complete anti-entrapment plan. Plan is missing engineering and structural information such as drain dimensions and connections, pump information and flow rates. Maximum flow rates over drain covers cannot be calculated and determined without this information. Facility has contacted the engineering firm that assumed the company who drew the plans and is searching through archived folders. An inspection is scheduled to review plans with an AHS aquatics specialist during the third week of December
