Aquaguard Swimming Pool Alarm Adds Safety to the Backyard
You can spend thousands of dollars building a fancy home security system to protect your material belongings from burglars, but don’t forget about home safety; it’s just as important to protect your family from accidents.
If you’ve got a swimming pool in your backyard, this is a place where people, especially small children, can be injured or even drowned. Kids just shouldn’t be using the pool without adult supervision. Try telling them that though.
If you’re worried your children, or perhaps the neighborhood children, will enter your pool when you’re not in the yard, a pool alarm is a good way to add some peace of mind. These devices alert you whenever someone tries to get into the water.
The Aquaguard alarm from Frontgate has two sirens to ensure you’ll be alerted if a child enters the pool, but they aren’t supposed to go off (false alarms) due to high winds or other “natural” disturbances. The system looks pretty easy to install and is available online for about $500.
