Summer is quickly approaching and that means pool season is upon us. With more people enjoying time outdoors, it is prime time for a pool safety inspection. There may be unforeseen dangers below the surface. We all know electricity and water do not mix. Being proactive is your best defense. Horizon Lighting offers a full comprehensive 8-point inspection of your pool and spa area at a low cost per pool location (contact us for a free quote). At the conclusion of the inspection, Horizon will immediately report our findings to management. If everything is safe, we can all rest easy. If repairs are necessary, Horizon Lighting will quote the cost of repairs at that time. The points of inspection will include but are not limited to:
Ensure underwater pool lighting is protected by a GFCI. Test for proper operation
Ensure that all spas have an emergency shut off switch. This switch must be located near the spa and have an “Emergency Shut Off Switch” label. Test for proper operation.
Ensure all circuit breakers are labeled
Test all GFCI’s in pool area including restrooms.
Verify that all pool equipment is grounded properly. Includes the continuous bonding jumper between pumps, heaters and other equipment.
Ensure all pool riser junction boxes are grounded properly.
Check liquid tight conduit for cracks and/or damage exposing electrical wiring.
Perform visual inspection for excessive corrosion or chemical build up around electrical components (time clocks, junction boxes, hardware).
Lighting is also an important safety component in pool/spa areas. Horizon can help you integrate LED lighting upgrades from the old incandescent or CF technology. Consider upgrading your underwater pool and spa lighting to LED. These projects usually pay for themselves within one year in energy cost savings! Ask us how!
