Pool log sheets must be kept by every pool operator and pool manager. Especially with regard to the handling of pool chemicals, the state is strict: pool logs must be kept for 1 to 3 years in order to prove that the chemicals were handled properly.
Using a pool log sheet is a handy tool to record findings and actions during pool maintenance. Its ease of use helps ensure that important information such as the date and time of inspection, pH levels, alkalinity, temperature, and more are recorded on a daily basis with a checklist or as required by state regulations.
Pool maintenance through regular checks is a proactive safety measure that helps prevent swimming pool-related accidents and disease outbreaks.

Routine pool maintenance is a must. It is the only way to ensure that the pool is safe and acidic for daily use. The following are three reasons to use pool log sheets to perform pool maintenance at regular intervals
To ensure that customers have the best experience while swimming, operators of spas, hotels, and water parks need to check their pools regularly. However, a visual inspection of the water is not enough to assess quality. Special tests (e.g., of the ph level) must be performed to determine whether ideal conditions exist.
The health and safety of swimmers is the focus of pool maintenance. Maintaining ideal levels of chlorine, water temperature, and air temperature minimize health risks. In addition, regular checks must be made to ensure that there has been no contamination from vomit, feces, or blood. But it is not only the water that plays a role in guest safety. The structural substance of the pool and its surroundings should also be checked regularly.
State and local regulations require pool operators to keep logs of their pool maintenance. These must include full details of inspections to demonstrate that ideal and safe conditions prevailed during pool operation. These documents must be kept for 2 years or longer, depending on regional conditions. If the regulations are not met, the permit to operate a swimming pool cannot be renewed.
There are four different intervals for pool maintenance: daily, weekly, monthly and yearly. The design of a pool log sheet is also based on these. Not all checks occur at the same time. Some need to be done daily for guest safety and health, while others are only due once a year. We have summarized the most important checks depending on the interval:
In swimming pools, there are many inspections and therefore a pile of paper - mainly due to documentation requirements. Using a digital solution for inspections and checklists puts an end to this. All daily, weekly, monthly and annual pool maintenance tasks can be easily completed via an application and stored centrally.
Lumiform's mobile app and desktop software allows pool maintenance to be performed on-site and report logs instantly for documentation. This ensures pool safety and proper maintenance, which are important for operations and business success. Compliance with laws and passing official inspections is made much easier this way.
