Many young children drown and injure themselves in the backyard pool. However, backyard pools are a source of many types of accidents and other injuries among adults and adolescents. You can also try a retractable roof enclosure over your swimming pool.

Let's take a look at how you can increase the safety of your pool to keep your family and friends safe.

1. Enlarge the pool fence

Many local authorities need new pools to be completely fenced. This requirement applies to all pool owners, regardless of whether small children live in the house or not.

2. Electrically ground your pool fence 

The pool is a large collection of water that can conduct electricity. If there is an electrical disturbance that causes an electric current to the metal structure of the pool, the water around the pool may be conductive. A person can be lowered by the metal structures around the pool, including handrails, stairs, lights, and guardrails.

3. Install the pool cover

A pool cover isn't just for keeping the leaves out of your pool. A cover that protects a person from falling into the water provides the highest level of security for your family. These covers are expensive but will prevent the child from drowning in the pool.

4. Cover your hot tub or spa pool

You must cover the spa pool with a cover or anti-child coating to prevent young people from accessing the water. Most new hot tubs sold with recessed or child-resistant lids are equipped with a sturdy bath or spa. Separate covers for existing hot tubs can be purchased.
