Public Pools, Spas and Splash Pads

Recreational water facilities are inspected by Public Health to ensure compliance with Ontario Regulation 565/90 (Public Pools).

Each spring, Hastings Prince Edward Public Health offers a free training course covering the important elements of safe pool and spa operation. This course, intended primarily for pool and spa owners/operators and lifeguards, provides information on such topics as:

legal responsibilities
infectious diseases
water chemistry and testing
recirculation systems
facility management
grounds for facility closure

If you’re opening or re-opening a pool or spa, complete and submit the Notification Form at least 14 days prior to opening. A Public Health Inspector will contact you.

We are gradually resuming in-person services at HPEPH by appointment only at this time. Please review our Service Interruptions page for more information.

All program lines and the COVID-19 information line operate Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm (excluding statutory holidays).

To assist us with our efforts to stop the spread of COVID-19, we ask anyone visiting the office for an appointment to:

bring a non-medical mask, physical distancing may not be possible during your appointment
maintain physical distance of at least 2 metres, both inside and outside the office
review symptoms of COVID-19, and reschedule your appointment if you have symptoms of the virus, or any other illness
reschedule your appointment if a family member or other close contact is ill
use accessible buttons to open doors, instead of handles
use hand sanitizer when entering and exiting the building

We have made additional changes to prevent the spread of COVID-19. If you are visiting our office for an appointment, you can be confident that we are:

increasing our cleaning, in alignment with heightened infection control protocols
considering alternatives to in-person appointments and meetings when possible
screening staff and visitors for symptoms of COVID-19
offering in-person services by appointment only to reduce traffic in office
ensuring staff wear masks and/or other protective equipment when seeing clients
