8 of 20 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 12 inspections with 13 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality and Chemicals and toxic substances.

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 14 times across 10 separate inspections, most recently on October 1, 2026. For example: Are the filtration, circulation and disinfection systems used to maintain water quality working properly (Non-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 7 times across 7 separate inspections, most recently on October 1, 2026. For example: Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Non-Critical)?

    • 05. Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Non-Critical)?
      • Total alkalinity was measured at >180 ppm at the time of inspection. The result exceeded the measurable range of the test kit and indicates that alkalinity is elevated. It was advised that corrective action is required to bring total alkalinity within the recommended range for hot tub operation.
