    • 03. Is the bacteriological quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Non-Critical)?
      • The water sample collected on August 12, 2026, was not tested because the date/time of sample collection was later than the date/time of receipt.
    • 05. Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Non-Critical)?
      • Update April 3, 2025: Combined chlorine measured 1.65 ppm. April 25, 2024: CC measured to be 1.40 ppm.August 18, 2023: Combined chlorine (CC) in the whirlpool measured 3.34 ppm at the time of inspection."**Ensure CC is maintained as low of a level as possible.
    • 07. Are the filtration, circulation and disinfection systems used to maintain water quality working properly (Non-Critical)?
      • Disparity observed between the pH level set on the automatic chemical feeder (pH = 7.0) and the result from manual testing (pH = 7.49).**Ensure that manual testing results are consistent with readings from the automatic chemical feeder. **Calibration of the feeder is required to maintain accurate chemical dosing.
    • 07. Are the filtration, circulation and disinfection systems used to maintain water quality working properly (Non-Critical)?
      • Observed filtration rate of the whirlpool is 78 US GPM, which exceeds the maximum allowable flow rate of 61 US GPM. **Ensure flow rate does not exceed the maximum rated capacity of filtration system to prevent inadequate filtration.
    • 17. Does the pool have adequate written policies, plans and posted rules and safety information to ensure that the pool is operating in a safe manner?
      • Submerged suction outlet covers for the whirlpool expired on February 6, 2024. **Please install the new covers with valid expiry date and update the Anti-entrapment plan. Note: Submerged suction outlet covers are in good condition and does not pose an immediate health risk.
