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 40 times across 19 separate inspections, most recently on August 28, 2026. 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 once on December 19, 2018. For example: Chemicals are stored in a safe manner and location

  • 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 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on May 13, 2026. For example: Pool equipment is regularly tested for safety and maintained in accordance with the manufacturers' specifications

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded once on August 8, 2018. For example: The hot tub enclosure has a clock and instructions for safe use of the hot tub, in clear view
