POOLGUARD IN GROUND POOL ALARM
The POOL ALARM uses one 9-volt battery — battery life is approximately one year. The POOL ALARM automatically resets after 5 minutes of alarming. The pool safety alarm will sound at the pool and in the home at the same time. The POOLGUARD SYSTEM can be used in a pool up to 80sqm in area. The POOL ALARM has a complete functional test feature every time it is installed in the pool.
| The REMOTE RECEIVER comes with a 9-volt power supply or it can be plugged into any 220-volt outlet in the house. The POOL ALARM sets stationary on the side of the pool and is easily removed for swimming. The range of the REMOTE RECEIVER is up to 50m from the POOL ALARM. The POOL ALARM requires NO ropes, wires, tie downs or deck anchors. The POOL ALARM is user friendly and completely portable.

NOTE: Swimming Pool Alarms should be included in any pool owner's safety program. Alarms for pools are most effective when combined with several other "layers of Protection" for pool safety.
POOL ALARMS DO NOT PREVENT DROWNING AND ARE NO SUBSTITUTE FOR PROPER SUPERVISION AND SAFE SWIMMING PRACTICES.
Supervision is always your primary layer of protection, but as the study shows, 69 percent of the drowning incidents occurred when parental supervision failed and there were not other "backup layers" in use.
Access doors to the pool area with high locks are a secondary layer of protection.
Alarms on access doors is another layer of protection.
A pool safety barrier (fence) separating the pool from your home and all access doors and entrances is one more layer of protection.
Water survival training for a child when he is capable of crawling or walking to the pool.
CPR and your knowledge of rescue techniques are a final layer of protection should there be an accident.
The goal, with instituted layers of protection, is to come as close to a "fail safe" system of preventing drowning incidents as possible. Meaning that if there is a momentary lapse of supervision for whatever reason, we have several backup systems in place. We have "Layers" of protection.
All must fail before a drowning can take place. A door has been left unlocked or open, the alarm system or device for the door has been turned off, the pool safety barrier has been left open, your child does enter the water, panics and does not attempt to utilize survival swim training, CPR is administered too late to save the child.
THERE CAN BE NO COMPROMISE ON POOL SAFETY. YOU ARE DEALING,
LITERALLY, WITH A LIFE AND DEATH SITUATION.
