Government agencies can only take so many steps to ensure the safety of commercial swimming pools and spas. They have developed regulations and codes to help sustain a safe, healthy, and clean pool for the public, but pool facilities must take things a step further to maintain the satisfaction and health of their patrons. Facility management software gives you the edge you need to take your swimming pool facility to the next level.

With a pool/spa facility, you need to stay one step ahead of potential problems to ensure the safety and satisfaction of your patrons. If you are even the least bit lax about preventative maintenance, you could be putting swimmers at risk of contracting recreational water illnesses (RWIs), injuries, skin or respiratory problems, and potential death.

The hospitality industry is highly competitive. To have the edge needed to become a leader, hotels have turned to automation for their pools and spas to ensure safety, compliance, and accuracy. Automation by VivoAquatics provides hoteliers with full control over aquatic management of their facility. They can effortlessly monitor the pool’s chemical levels via a cloud-based platform coupled with regulation controllers.

An aquatic facility has the potential to expand any bottom line as long as it is treated like any other business. Whether your commercial pool is located at a fitness center, resort, municipality, hotel, or condo/apartment complex, you want to ensure it isn’t a money user but a revenue maker. Many factors can tip the balance one way or another.

Running an aquatic facility isn t without challenges. Any misstep results in violations, puts your swimmers at risk, and might harm your reputation which will impact profitability.

The chlorine smell can be really annoying and cause problems at your commercial pool or spa. Built up chloramines can be detrimental to both your commercial pool, as well as the satisfaction of your swimming pool patrons. Not only can high chloramine levels cause swimmers to experience skin and eye irritation, but the potent smell of chlorine can also be a turnoff.

In the United States, public funding from municipalities typically pays for the construction of most public swimming pools. A community pool is usually a standard six lane and measures about 22.9-meters (25 yards).

As freezing temperatures approach, it's time to start winterizing your commercial pool. Don't be overwhelmed, because a successful pool closing paves the way for a successful pool opening next year!

In the electronic era, positive or negative reviews can make or break an aquatic facility. Consumers and patrons regularly turn to Google and Yelp to check reviews before picking a fitness center, hotel, or aquatic facility to peruse what previous visitors have to say about the business.

Every two years, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) conducts an annual study that focuses on tracking the progress of commercial pools in the United States. In the last decade, the reports have shown little progress in any reduction in violations.
