If you’ve ever been to a public or private pool, you’ve likely seen pool rules sign posted
somewhere in the area. Pool rule signs serve an important purpose in ensuring the safety
and enjoyment of everyone who uses the pool, especially in a backyard setting.
They outline important rules and regulations that swimmers need to follow to prevent
accidents and injuries. Whether you’re a pool owner or just a regular swimmer,
understanding these rules is essential to having a fun and safe time in and around the pool.
Pool Rules
- No diving
- Use the 5 Layers of Protection
- Barriers And Alarms
- Supervision
- Water Competency
- Life Jackets
- Emergency Preparation
- Lock all gates and remove ladders & pool toys
- Learn CPR With rescue breaths
- Have water rescue devices nearby
In case of an emergency, call 911, and don’t forget to add your home address to your pool
rules sign after printing.
Match Your Sign To Your Style!
Everyone’s style is different, especially with upcoming summer pool parties. Knowing this,
we created three different style options to match your party theme or home aesthetic!
- Farmhouse – if you’re inspired by rustic charm that is both cozy and stylish.
- Modern – if you’re inspired by clean geometry and a neutral palette.
- Beachy – if you’re inspired by tropical paradise and bold bright colors.
Recommended printing dimensions are 8.5 in x 11 in. Take it to your local printer to have it printed on aluminum or metal! Have fun with it, but be sure that the pool rules are visible from any place in and around the pool.
