3 Things You Should Know About Pool Fence Spigots

A Pool Fence Spigot is a device that can be used in conjunction with a fence and will help to prevent children from accidentally falling into the pool. Pool fence spigots are fairly easy to install, but there are three things you should know before installing one yourself:

  • They should be installed at least 10 feet away from the edge of any type of water (including pools, ponds, rivers…) for safety reasons. Also, they should be placed at least four inches under the ground.
  • They can only be activated by an adult when they’re standing on solid ground; it’s not safe for kids to start them themselves.
  • They need to be installed correctly so that the pressure plate activates as soon as a child hits it.

In conclusion, they are a great way to keep your pool safe and can be easily installed by following these three simple tips!
