If so, it might be time to consider how to keep them safe around the pool. After all, no one wants their visit to be remembered for the wrong reasons.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One way to prevent accidents is to install an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.piscicover.net\/en\/cubiertas\/\">automated pool cover<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the safety benefits of an automatic pool cover?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are many benefits to installing an electric pool cover. These include increasing energy efficiency, protection for the pool and stylish yet functional design.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are also safety benefits, encompassing:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Solid slats provide a hard cover that can support the weight of a grown adult and prevent accidental drowning<\/li>\n\n<li>A cover prevents pets from jumping in and getting stuck in the pool<\/li>\n\n<li>The cover keeps out contaminants and debris<\/li>\n\n<li>It prevents children from playing in the pool without appropriate adult supervision<\/li>\n\n<li>The automation means the pool can be easily retracted by one person should objects or a person get trapped beneath the cover<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How else can you keep children safe around the pool?<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Guidelines for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rospa.com\/water-safety\/staying-safe-on-holiday\">staying safe around water<\/a> are outlined by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents. It gives several suggestions on pool safety for families:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Always supervise children using the pool\u00a0<\/li>\n\n<li>Teach children to swim at a young age and remind them not to swim alone<\/li>\n\n<li>Have someone nearby with a knowledge of first aid and resuscitation techniques, should the worst happen<\/li>\n\n<li>If the pool is a community or hotel pool, check whether there is a lifeguard<\/li>\n\n<li>Where possible, restrict physical access to the pool to prevent toddlers and infants from falling in<\/li>\n\n<li>Teach children good pool etiquette: for example, no pushing and jumping, no diving into unknown depths<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>By following these simple safeguarding rules and by installing an automatic pool cover, you can prevent accidents and make your Spanish summer a fun one.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Explore the safety benefits of an automated pool cover from Piscicover and some other pool safety guidance for the children this summer to prevent accidents. <\/p>","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":506,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1063","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
