- 04. Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Critical)?
- The manual pH test indicated the pH to be pH: 8.15*and 8.04*The automatic controller indicated the pH was 7.48These results are inconsistent and out of the required range (6.8-7.6). Please ensure the pH is kept within the legislated range and that the automatic controller is reading similar to manual testing.
- 17. 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?
- Anti-entrapment plan has a discrepancy. The plan indicated the max flow rate is 70gpm; however, when the pump was turned up to max the flow meter showed a flow rate of 83gpm. -Provided operator with "Information to complete Anti-Entrapment Compliance Plan for Public Swimming Pools" document-Operator must use one of the methods to determine maximum flow rate of system.

- 04. Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Critical)?
- The free chlorine (FC) was manually tested to be 0.78ppm*, 0.52ppm*, and 0.68ppm*. The FC must be kept at a minimum of 1.0ppm. Please increase the FC to at least 1.0ppm and ensure the chemistry is remaining stable.
- 04. Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Critical)?
- The manual pH test indicated the pH to be pH: 7.9*, 7.74*, and 7.59. The automatic controller indicated the pH was 7.18, ad 7.08. These results are inconsistent and some of them are out of the required range (6.8-7.6). Please ensure the pH is kept within the legislated range and that the automatic controller is reading similar to manual testing.
- 07. Are the filtration, circulation and disinfection systems used to maintain water quality working properly (Non-Critical)?
- The turnover of the pol was originally calculated to be 8.56 hours (Flow rate: 73gpm). the pump was turned up to a flow of 83gpm which resulted in a turnover of 7.53 hours.The pool must have a turnover of at maximum 8 hours. (Minimum flow rate of 78gpm to achieve this)Please note that in the Pool Standards swimming pools constructed before November 2006 should be maintained at 6 hours however, recirculation rate can be maintained within 8 hours for a swimming pool before November 2006 if it can be demonstrated that the water quality meets the Pool Standards.

- Anti-entrapment plan has a discrepancy. The plan indicated the max flow rate is 70gpm; however, when the pump was turned up to max the flow meter showed a flow rate of 83gpm. -Provided operator with "Information to complete Anti-Entrapment Compliance Plan for Public Swimming Pools" document-Operator must use one of the methods to determine maximum flow rate of system.

- Anti-entrapment plan has a discrepancy. Drain cover specs provided show that max flow rate of the cover when wall-mounted is 132 GPM. Max flow rate of the system on the plan is 143 GPM. Max flow rate of the system cannot be higher than what one cover is able to take in.-Provided operator with "Information to complete Anti-Entrapment Compliance Plan for Public Swimming Pools" document-Operator must use one of the methods to determine maximum flow rate of system, or obtain covers that are higher than the system's maximum flow rate

Pool exceeded the turnover rate. - Increase the flow rate to meet the turnover rate. ** Ensure to follow the manufacturer's specification on all the pool equipment **
- 07. Are the filtration, circulation and disinfection systems used to maintain water quality working properly (Non-Critical)?
- Updated Aug 1, 2024 - skimmers were not skimming as water level was too low to easily enter the skimming area.-Operator started to add more water during inspection. Ensure skimmers are fully working-----------1. West two skimmers were not operating properly, skimmer weirs were not working - skimming action is not achieved. Debris floating on the surface of the pool was not captured by these skimmers.- Repair so that skimmers are working per design plans.3. pH probe is reading high compared to the inspector's onsite pH readings and the recorded readings in the daily logs onsite.- Recalibrate or otherwise maintain pH system so that it is accurate and in good working condition.
