Summer is coming and with Summer comes Summer heat.
With summer heat comes swimming and on December 19, 2008 the The Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act, or the VGA Act, became law. Under this law, all public pools and spas must have drain covers installed and a second anti-entrapment system installed to prevent hidden hazards of drain entrapment.
If you have a pool or spa, some homeowner companies may request proof of compliance. Below is a link that will direct you to the Pool Safety website. This site will give more details of this law and should answer any questions you may have.
Also be sure you have an approved fence around your pool that has a lockable gate.
Be Safe and Be Smart!
Check your Fire Extinguishers, Smoke Detectors, Carbon Monoxide Detectors
and have a Home Fire Escape Plan.
