subject: Purchasing Pool Alarms [print this page] If you own a swimming pool owner you should consider purchasing pool alarms. There is a common misconception about pool
alarms, which is who needs them. Many people mistakenly think that pool alarms are necessary only for people who have small
children. Although it is certainly true that families who have small children will probably benefit the most from pool
alarms, they aren't the only ones who will.
Pool alarms come in numerous styles. The purpose of all pool alarms is to keep children away from swimming pools. Should they
do come close to a swimming pool, pool alarms will alert you, immediately.
There are numerous types of pool alarms including underwater alarms, and above water alarms, and gate alarms. If you want to
purchase pool alarms for your swimming pool, you must first decide what style of pool alarm to purchase. In order to do this,
either do some research on the Internet or visit your local retailer who sells pool supplies.
Gate alarms are the most popular of all pool alarms. Gate alarms are located on the gate to your pool fence. Most gate alarms
will go off when a person passes through the gate. Probably one of the most effective types pool alarms that are available
today are gate alarms. However, they are of no use to you if you don't have a fence installed along the exterior of your
pool.
Other types of pool alarms are the above water alarms. Above water pool alarms are designed to go off whenever a person gets
too close to the swimming pool. Most of these types of pool alarms come with a barrier that is preset. Above water alarms
are ideal since they will alert you before the child actually makes it to the swimming pool. However, above water alarms tend
to be set off easily, particularly if the swimming pool area is not gated in and nearly anything will set them off.
The last type of pool alarm that you should consider is underwater pool alarms. These types of pool alarms are somewhat like
above water alarms. Rather than detecting motion that is on the exterior of the swimming pool, they detect the motion in the
swimming pool. The result is that if your pool alarm is set, you will be notified if something enters the water. Thus, if a
child falls in the swimming pool, the pool alarm will s ound automatically and allow you to save the child.
