Inflatable pools are getting bigger and better – and more dangerous. What you NEED to know...

Every summer seems to unveil a bigger and better line of inflatable swimming pools for the back yard...

Unfortunately, reports of terrible accidents have been growing along with their popularity. The majority of people who buy and put up these pools don’t consider themselves pool owners. Proper fencing, alarms and covers are a MUST with swimming pools, and inflatable pools count. 

Every parent knows ANY water can pose a drowning hazard. These pools don’t get emptied at the end of the day and hold anywhere from 200 to 5,000 gallons of water.

Pool and spa experts also worry that these large, inflatable pools pose a health hazard if the water isn’t changed enough, or is left untreated.
