Why should you use fresh water for splash pads?
Safety first! At Aqua Seal, one of our priorities is having the safest water play for children everywhere! We recommend a fresh water system so children do not come in contact harmful bacteria and chemicals that could potentially cause illness, skin irritations, and burns. You never know what they are sensitive to these days, so it is better to be safe than sorry for everyone.
If you look at children playing in splashpads, you will see almost 1/3 of the children with their faces down in a nozzle drinking the water or that they are running around with their mouth open and water is going in. Which is why it is so important to make sure that you are providing the best option for the children that will be playing in the splash pad! We always recommend going with a fresh water system so there is no harm to the customer.
More over, a fresh water system is the simplest and best way to go. There is no costly maintenance with fresh water, or chemical liablility, no issues with permits, no daily certified pool contractor, etc. You are only having to pay for your water usage, and that’s it. You can save upfront and any maintenance costs in the future!
Installing a splash pad in your water playground is a great swimming pool alternative. There is no risk of drowning, it’s virtually maintenance-free, and it adds value to your home! What’s not to like?
A splash pad is not only in use for recreation, they can conveniently convert to patios or fountain water features. With our many years of landscaping experience, the options are endless.
