			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All Public Pools required to replace dangerous drains by the end of 2008.</p>
<p>The danger is real and it&#8217;s severe. The story is the same all over. Everywhere, there are still over half of public pools that are non-compliant, with the dangerous drains still not replaced more than 6 months after the law has taken effect.</p>
<p>These old drains, not only in public pools, but at home, as well, where there are not regulations, are very dangerous for children. They can produce up to 800 pounds of force. Enough force to literally tear out your child&#8217;s intestines, causing death.</p>
<p>Since severe injury or death can result from a child encountering these dangerous drains, there is a sense of urgency and the Federal Government is expected to start enforcing the new laws more strictly, closing public pools which don&#8217;t comply.</p>
<p>Protect our kids. Ask your public pool if they are in compliance. If not, then DO NOT allow your children to swim there, and, furthermore, report the facility as being non-compliant! Simply look for the Department of Public Safety in your local phone directory, or search for the website.</p>
<p>Stop the Dangerous Drains!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you’re new to owning a pool, it can seem overwhelming when thinking of how to tend to your new swimming hole. However, with a few basic swimming pool maintenance tips you can easily keep your pool beautiful and clean, all year!</p>
<p>The chemical balance in your pool is vital for beautiful and clean water. Thus, keeping your chemical balance in check is important. You can easily test your pool for proper chemical balance with a chemical testing kit. These kits are color coded for easy reading and require very little effort and time to utilize. Depending on what your test shows, you may or may not need to add chemicals to the water. The test will tell you exactly what your pool needs, or doesn’t need.</p>
<p>In addition to maintaining a good chemical balance in your pool, you must remove debris regularly. Your filtration system should do a good job of removing much of the debris. However, you may want to invest in a pool vacuum. Many pool vacuums can be hooked up, submerged onto the bottom of the pool and left to run for a few hours, doing the work for you. You will need to scrub the sides and bottom of your pool with a scrub brush every now and then to remove any possible algae or dirt.</p>
<p>Overall, cleaning your pool can take just minutes each week. Remember, keeping your pool in great condition is part of maintaining your investment. Doing it yourself allows you to save a load of money too!</p>
