Why Sweetwater Pool & Spa Center is an Essential Business
There’s no doubt about it, these are trying times for everyone, as we are all experiencing some degree of chaos. And navigating what’s considered to be an essential business while you may be in need of things around the homefront can add to that chaos. You may be wondering if your pool service company is considered an essential business, and if so, why it’s considered to be essential. We’re here to answer all of your questions about the importance of pool care during this time and how it plays a role in keeping you healthy.
The Importance of Proper Pool & Hot Tub Maintenance
According to the Centers for Disease Control, while there is no evidence the virus that causes COVID-19 can be contracted through the pool and hot tub water, proper operation and maintenance should continue to be conducted to inactive the virus if it is in the water.
So what does that mean for your pool or hot tub?
Water that is not adequately maintained can harbor dangerous pathogens, such as Pseudomonas, Cryptosporidium, E.Coli, Shigella, and more. These pathogens threaten the health of a swimmer and have serious side effects, including respiratory issues, skin infections, and intestinal issues. Unkept pools also create a breeding ground for mosquitos and other pests that carry disease. If left uncared for, the diseases they carry present a risk for swimmers and the community at large.
The World Health Organization states that proper pool and hot tub operation and maintenance mitigates the chance of these waterborne pathogens growing in your pool. Whether it’s having access to the right pool care chemicals or professional pool service, it’s important to properly sanitize your pool to keep the bacteria, viruses, algae and mold spores away.
