Swimming Pool Safety
Swimming Pool Safety
Your pool is maintained to a high standard and will be cleaned on a regular basis. Familiarise yourself with the depth of the deep and shallow end, particularly if the pool is being used by non-swimmers. No diving - diving is prohibited in all our villas
Children and non-swimmers must be supervised at all times as they cannot reasonably expected be expected to judge their own safety. Take special care especially if they seem very confident, they may be more at risk than more timid children. Avoid swimming if you have been drinking alcohol
Never use glass items by the pool! Do not attempt to swim or walk on a pool with a cover on it. Take extra care on slippery or uneven surfaces. Children and fair-skinned people should war a hat and a T-shirt whilst in the pool as harmful ultra violet rays can penetrate the water up to a depth of l.5m
Do not use the pool if the water is cloudy or milky and you cannot see the bottom. If this is the case contact your representative as soon as possible. Help to keep your pool sparkling by always taking a pool side shower where possible before getting into the pool. Sun tan creams and lotions can cause problems with the pool filtration equipment.
Pool Chemicals
NEVER put any liquids or chemicals into the pool yourselves. The pool pump house should normally be locked and not accessible.
However if for some reason the pump house is open, perhaps for access to the pool lights switch NEVER touch any of the equipment. Keep children out of the pump house at all times.
If pool chemicals such as chlorine and acid are in the pump house under no circumstances touch them, ask your representative to have them removed.
These chemicals can cause severe burns on contact with skin.
Sunbathing Safely
In Cyprus the sun is particularly strong during the summer months even on overcast days. Always use a good sun protection cream of a high protection factor and wear a sun hat. Start your sunbathing gradually. Particular care must be taken with young children and very fair skinned people
