The National Swimming Pool Foundation<\/a>\u00ae<\/sup> (NSPF\u00ae<\/sup> ), has recommendations<\/a> to improve water and air quality by reducing urine in pools. A few small changes by coaches, parents, and facility managers can prevent pee in the pool. After all, the swimmers, parents, and coaches have the most to gain since they are the ones who are exposed to the water and breathing the air.<\/p>\n

Just because\u00a0one report<\/a> suggests we should fear urine in the pool, people of all ages should continue to enjoy the wonder of water. Immersion and water activity can reduce lower-back pain<\/a>, blood pressure<\/a>, and arthritis symptoms<\/a>, and improve mental<\/a> and physical health. Recent science<\/a> has shown that even the sight of water<\/a> can improve one’s mood.<\/p>\n

First, everyone from swim coaches to parents should encourage showers and bathroom breaks before entering the water. It is important to recognize that being\u00a0submerged in water<\/a> stimulates the body to create more urine. There are other simple solutions that coaches, parents, and facility managers can incorporate that reduce pee in the pool.<\/p>\n

Swim Coaches should require a bathroom break 30-60 minutes into the practice. For example, it takes about 40 minutes in the water for a person to feel the need to urinate. A short break that borders this time frame will reduce peeing in the pool.<\/p>\n

Parents who frequent water parks, public pools, or backyard pools should schedule an \u201cout of pool\u201d time for a snack, sunscreen, and a bathroom break every 30-60 minutes.<\/p>\n

Facility Managers should consider two ways to prevent pee in the pool. First, schedule short breaks to encourage people to exit the water. For example, a 10-minute \u201cadult only\u201d swim time or an out-of-pool activity every hour encourages people to exit the pool and use the bathroom. Second, post signage<\/a> that suggests using the\u00a0bathroom<\/a> and showering<\/a> before getting into the pool.<\/p>\n

Air quality can also be improved upon for indoor facilities when we keep urine out of the water. What\u2019s more, everyone from children to masters can gain the benefits of one of the most fun and healthy activities. When coaches, parents, and facility managers make small changes, the water we enjoy and air we breathe is healthier, safer, and better.<\/p>\n

About the National Swimming Pool Foundation<\/strong>\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong><\/h3>\n

We believe everything we do helps people live healthier lives. Whether it\u2019s encouraging more aquatic activity, making pools safer, or keeping pools open, we believe we can make a difference. NSPF\u00ae offers products and programs that are technically sound, convenient, and beautifully designed. In 2012, we launched the Step Into Swim<\/a>\u2122 Campaign, a 10-year initiative to create one million more swimmers. In 2016, to further their mission, NSPF combined forces with Genesis, an educational leader for builders of residential pools and spas. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit located in Colorado Springs, CO., proceeds go to fund research and to help create swimmers. The National Swimming Pool Foundation has been keeping pools safe and open since 1965. Visit nspf.org<\/a>, genesis3.com<\/a>, or call 719-540-9119<\/a> to learn more.<\/p>\n
