Living in a home with a swimming pool in Hartford County, CT is a big responsibility, especially if you are living with a toddler or younger children.

As a Connecticut homeowner pool safety is extremely important. Statistics show that in Connecticut, about seven kids die each year due to unintentional drowning. Water safety awareness is extremely important, which includes ensuring your children know how to swim, parents and caretakers know how to perform CPR, and that you have added multiple layers of protection in your home. Layers of protection include a pool fence, pool and door alarms, parental supervision, door locks, and water survival training.
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 anything other cause with the exception of birth defects.
