Another precaution to be followed when you have children and a pool at home is to remove chairs, tables and other things that could help them climb over the wall surrounding the pool. It is still best if you never leave a child or children alone in the pool even if it is to answer the door or the phone. Remember, it only takes so little time for accidents to happen. Check your pool equipment regularly if they are in working order like the skimmers, drains, grates and heaters. Pool chemicals must also be stored in a secure place at a level that cannot be easily reached by children.
