Violations:
A summary of the violations found during the inspection are listed below.
| Code | Description / Observation / Corrective Action |
| 401 | Critical Inadequate concentration of disinfectant Observation: Concentration is inadequate to allow effective disinfection Corrective Action: For pools where temperature is maintained >30°C, Free-Allowable Chlorine (FAC) must be >1.5 ppm. FAC should not exceed 10 ppm. It is recommended that FAC be maintained at 3 - 5 ppm |
| 402 | Critical Inadequate pH controls Observation: pH measured > 8.0 (Taylor and Palin test kits) Corrective Action: Ensure pH is lowered and is maintained at 7.2-7.8 |
| 421 | Other (specify below) Observation: Water level too high, causing skimmer and floating weir to be completely submerged. Corrective Action: Floating weir allows for surface contaminants to be removed effectively. Ensure water level in hot tub is reduced to permit proper functioning of floating weir. |
