There are pools, spas, or other bodies of water. LPA inspected the pool and the fencing that surrounds it. The pool has a sturdy 5-foot wrought iron fence that does not surround the entire pool. The wrought iron fence vertical bars are 4 inches apart. The lock on the gate is positioned 60 inches from the ground. Licensee has also purchased an in pool alarm that detects movement inside the pool water and is in compliance with ASTM International Standard F2208. In addition, LPA observed safety equipment to include a life ring with a diameter of 20 inches labeled approved by United States Coast Guard and a adjustable rescue pole that is 12-feet in length with a body hook. LPAs did not observe any items or objects near fencing that would reduce the fence’s height to less than 5 feet or make fence climbable by a child under six years old.
