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 23 times across 15 separate inspections, most recently on March 17, 2026. For example: Pool water velocity and recirculation rate 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 21, 2024. For example: Chemicals are stored in a safe manner and location

  • Food temperature controlHigher risk

    Inspectors check that anything that has to be kept at a set temperature, such as chilled or hot food, or equipment like sterilizers, stays in its safe range and that accurate thermometers are on hand. With food, temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning.

    Recorded once on November 18, 2021. For example: The pool water temperature is properly maintained

  • 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 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on July 27, 2023. For example: Construction or alterations have occurred with a valid construction permit or waiver.

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on March 17, 2025. For example: Pool equipment is regularly tested for safety and maintained in accordance with the manufacturers' specifications
