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 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on August 13, 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 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on May 5, 2026. For example: Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Non-Critical)?

  • 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 July 24, 2026. For example: Are proper testing, monitoring, and other records being properly maintained?

  1. Risk Management Inspection

    1 infraction

    • 07. Are the filtration, circulation and disinfection systems used to maintain water quality working properly (Non-Critical)?
      • Observed flow meter reading at the time of inspection: 97 GPMHot tub Volume: 639 GallonsTurnover rate of hot tub: 639 gallons/ 97GPM = 6.588 min / 60 min per hour = 0.1098 hours = 6.588 minutes.The calculated turnover rate for the hot tub is approximately 6.6 minutes, which is well within the maximum allowable turnover period of 15 minutes for a hot tub with a volume of less than four cubic meters. Sand filters of hot tub: Pentair 30" Triton® II Side Mount Sand Filter TR100, Almond | 140210 Filter Area: 4.91 sq.ftMaximum Filtration rate for filter: 74 GPMMaximum rate of filtration: 97GPM/4.91 sq.ft = 19.76 GPM/sq.ft The calculated filtration rate of 19.76 GPM/sq. ft. exceeds the maximum allowable filtration rate of 12.5 GPM/sq. ft. for a whirlpool utilizing a high-rate sand filter constructed after November 2006. Excessive filtration rates may reduce filter efficiency and impair the system's ability to adequately remove particulate matter from the water.Ensure the filtration rate for the high-rate sand filter does not exceed 12.5 GPM/sq. ft. and that the filtration system is operated in accordance with the Pool Standards and approved design specifications. Provide documentation, engineering information, or design specifications if the current system configuration is intended to operate at a higher filtration rate.

    • 16. Are proper testing, monitoring, and other records being properly maintained?
      • Testing records were maintained and generally reflected satisfactory pool operation. However, records indicated that total alkalinity was being tested approximately twice per month rather than at least weekly.Regular monitoring of total alkalinity is necessary to adequately assess and maintain water balance, support effective disinfection, and ensure whirlpool water quality is maintained in accordance with the Pool Standards.Ensure all required water quality parameters, including total alkalinity, are tested and recorded at the required frequency to adequately monitor and maintain whirlpool water quality.
