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 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on January 8, 2025. For example: Free available chlorine (FAC) within range of 0.5 - 10 ppm

• 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 once on July 30, 2024. For example: Safe storage, handling and sufficient supply of all chemicals

• 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 once on January 8, 2025. For example: Premises is maintained free from every serious condition that may be a health hazard

• 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 February 27, 2024. For example: Daily records completed, signed and available for viewing

• Other findingsLower risk

  Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

  Recorded once on January 7, 2026. For example: Recirculation system of water facility is in good working condition including automatic dosing device
