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 8 times across 8 separate inspections, most recently on March 18, 2025. For example:
Exposed piping within pool enclosure is properly colour-coded s.6(6)(p)
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 September 5, 2013. For example:
Safe storage and handling of all chemicals s.6(4)(h)
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Decks, ladders, fencing, drains, washrooms and signage must be in good repair. Damaged drain covers or broken fencing can be real safety hazards, while most other upkeep issues are lower risk.
Recorded 15 times across 14 separate inspections, most recently on October 6, 2017. For example:
Deck and walls maintained in a sanitary condition and free from hazards s.6(2)(b)
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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on June 3, 2025. For example:
Pool Rules notices displayed with complete information s.19(1)
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 May 26, 2015. For example:
Shower signs posted at each shower and every entrance to the deck used by bathers s.19(2)
