Splash Pads
There are several reasons why a splash pad might be a better choice than a pool, especially when it comes to young children:
- Safety: Splash pads are typically much safer than pools because there is no standing water. This eliminates the risk of drowning, which is a leading cause of death among young children. Splash pads are also typically designed with non-slip surfaces to reduce the risk of slipping and falling.
- Convenience: Splash pads are easier to maintain than pools because they don't require as much cleaning or chemical treatment. They also don't require a lot of space, so they can be installed in smaller yards or public areas.
- Cost: Splash pads are generally less expensive to install and maintain than pools, which can be a significant factor for families on a budget.
- Fun: Splash pads can provide just as much fun and entertainment for children as a pool, with the added benefit of being able to accommodate more children at once. They also often feature various water features and spray nozzles, which can make for a more exciting and interactive experience.
Overall, a splash pad can be a safer, more convenient, and cost-effective option for families with young children who want to enjoy water play without the risks and maintenance requirements of a traditional pool.

They have all of the same filtration as a pool without standing water.
They filter and recycle the water so water is not wasted.

Splash pads have to have the tank and filter within 15 ft of the splash surface or the cost is $55.00 per ft extra.
