7 of 23 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 5 inspections with 3 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 20 times across 14 separate inspections, most recently on October 15, 2026. For example:
Is the bacteriological quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (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 11 times across 11 separate inspections, most recently on February 26, 2026. For example:
Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Critical)?

- Recent water sample result returned showing total coliform presence. Operator (Susie) was advised that further treatment and re-sampling is required asap, ensuring that FC/pH levels were within normal operating levels. Is also recommended to increase FC (free chlorine) level to 10 ppm and pH at 7.2 for at least one pool turnover period. The operator stated she would drain the hot tub, disinfect, refill, balance and re-sample.
