According to reports by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, approximately one in five people who die from drownings are children under the age of 14. Even worse, the CDC Reports that drowning kills more children ages 1-4 years than any other cause with the exception of birth defects.
This is why Kids Safe is encouraging pool owners in Fairfield County, CT to install a pool fence and other Layers of Protection that extend well beyond just fencing too. However, a professionally installed Life Saver Pool Fence is the best and safest pool fence barrier available for homeowners to protect their family from accidental drownings.
Fairfield County in Connecticut is home to over 900, 000 residents as of the 2010 census and many of these residents own a house with a swimming pool. As the most populous county in the state, Fairfield County represents a little over 25% of Connecticut’s overall population and is one of its fastest-growing counties. From January 2011 to December 2018, there were a total of 39 fatal unintentional drowning deaths in children 17 and younger. Of those 39 deaths, 20 of them occurred in a pool, which is more than half. 28 of these deaths were male and 11 were female.
Some examples of layers of protection we recommend to Fairfield County homeowners include:
- A child pool safety fence
- Self-closing, self-latching pool gates
- Pool safety covers
- Pool and door alarms
- Water survival safety training
- Swimming lessons
- Constant adult supervision
Child proof pool fences have been used for decades as a preventative measure by parents, grandparents and caretakers. As a homeowner in Fairfield County, ensuring your children and grandchildren are safe from harm is vital.
In Fairfield County, all residential swimming pools must be enclosed with fencing in a way that makes the water inaccessible and prevents small children from accessing the pool. The enclosure must be at least four feet high above the underlying ground with a pool gate that must be self-closing and self-latching. If the house has an aboveground pool with steps, it must be protected with self-closing, self-latching gates, at least four feet high, or with vertical sides at least four feet high and steps that are easily removable by one person.

Why Install A Life Saver Pool Fence?
Not only is the Life Saver Pool Fence the strongest removable mesh pool fence available on the market but it is also backed by a 100 year warranty. The fence we install is strong and durable enough to handle all kinds of weather conditions. Our patented poles, especially the Solid Core aluminum poles are the strongest poles ever put onto the market. Our sleeves into the ground re long too to keep those poles really firm and in place.
Another great feature of the Life Saver mesh pool fence is that they are removable and can easily and quickly be taken down in minutes if you are entertaining or want to remove them for the winter months. The fence is easily rolled up for compact storage and long-term removal. Additionally, the mesh we use is marine grade and quadruple stitched border; it’s nearly indestructible, making our fence the most ideal option for any homeowner. The mesh we use is also nearly transparent which means you can easily see the water while your children are playing in the pool. Remember, even a black mesh fence can be virtually see-through!
If you are a homeowner in Fairfield County, Connecticut, pool safety should be your number one priority during the warmer months. Kids love to spend time outside in the pool, and you should be able to enjoy your pool with your family without the fear of drowning. A near transparent mesh pool fence will allow you to have the peace of mind that you can always see your pool, especially if your children are not supposed to be using the pool. This gives you time to react in the event of an emergency or if your child accesses your pool unsupervised.
