Pool Safety Nets: Fast On, Fast Off

A Pool Safety Net stretches tightly across the pool surface, forming a taut web with openings of three to four inches. It’s lightweight compared to other safety covers, which makes a real difference for families who open and close their pool every day.

Installation and removal each take about five minutes. If your household runs on a busy schedule and you need a barrier that keeps up, a Pool Safety Net gives you that flexibility without sacrificing protection.

Pool Covers: A Solid Barrier for Stronger Protection

Pool Covers stretch tightly across the pool and lock into place so children can’t pull them aside. Most can support over 4,000 lbs., meaning pets or small children who wander onto the surface are supported rather than at risk of breaking through.

Removing or installing a Pool Cover takes about 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the pool’s size and shape, making them a better fit for families who open the pool on weekends rather than daily. For the most convenient option, automatic pool covers open and close with the push of a button. They come at a higher cost than traditional covers, but the added ease is worth it for many homeowners.

Pool Covers also reduce debris and can cut down on evaporation during warmer months, which helps keep your water balanced between service visits.

Tennessee Pool Barrier Requirements

Tennessee combines a statewide pool alarm law with building codes adopted by local cities and counties to set standards for residential pool safety. Knowing them helps you understand where a Pool Cover or Pool Safety Net fits into your overall setup.

• Barrier height: Local building codes commonly require residential pool barriers to be at least 48 inches tall, measured from the ground on the outside of the fence.
• Gate hardware: Gates are typically required to be self-closing and self-latching, with the latch positioned out of reach of small children.
• Pool alarms: Under Tennessee’s Katie Beth’s Law, private pools deeper than 36 inches that were built on or after January 1, 2011, require a pool alarm.
• Covers and nets as added protection: A properly installed Pool Cover or Pool Safety Net is generally treated as an additional layer of protection alongside a compliant fence and gate, not a replacement for one.

If you have questions about how your current setup measures up, our team can walk you through what we observe during your installation visit.
