Keeping your guests safe and sound at your New Hampshire hotel or resort pool and spa is a top priority, and we're here to help! Navigating the regulations can feel a little like taking a dip in a chilly lake, but don't worry – HOTELSIGNS.com is your trusted partner. New Hampshire's rules for public bathing facilities are primarily managed under NHCAR, Env-Wa. Your local health department is also a great resource and might have additional recommendations.
Let's explore some of the key areas these regulations cover:
Understanding New Hampshire's Pool and Spa Regulations
- Facility Design and Operation: New Hampshire has guidelines for the design, construction, and operation of public pools and spas to ensure safety and hygiene.
- Water Quality Standards: Maintaining clean and healthy water through proper disinfection and testing is crucial. Specific chemical levels and water clarity standards are in place
- Safety Equipment Requirements: Having readily available safety equipment like rescue devices and first aid supplies is necessary.
- Signage Requirements: Clear and conspicuous signage is mandated to inform patrons of rules, warnings, and emergency information (more on this below!).
- Lifeguard Requirements: Depending on the size and type of facility, lifeguards may be required, or specific "No Lifeguard on Duty" protocols and signage must be followed.
- Emergency Procedures: Having established emergency procedures and readily accessible communication is essential.
