We are an Essential Business

Have you wondered why pool and hot tub companies are considered an essential business? It’s because many organizations including the World Health Organization and CDC have said it is vital that you keep your pool and hot tub clean, sanitized, and balanced to prevent the spread of bacteria.

In other words, these essential businesses are part of the critical infrastructure during the pandemic.

Fiesta Pools and Spas is staying open to help you enjoy your backyard all season long in safety. Our retail stores are open, and our service teams are out in the field. As we continue to ensure your backyard retreat is in safe working order, please note the following.

Important Reasons We are an Essential Business

Here are a few more reasons it’s important for pool and hot tub stores to remain open, especially now that the season is upon us:

• Untreated pool and spa water can lead to bacterial growth (e.g. E. coli, Cryptosporidum, Pseudomonas, Shigella).
• Maintaining healthy water quality is necessary to prevent infectious disease spread.
• Community pools are closed, and people all over the United States are being asked to stay at home because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of this, it is critical to maintain properly sanitized home pool and spa environments and exercise routines to maintain public health.

CDC Guidelines

We’re very glad the CDC has posted information that shows properly maintained pools and spas are not a threat for spreading COVID-19 and are a health activity for us! In addition, being outside in our own backyard retreats makes us healthier and relieves stress and boredom while providing lots of family memories. According to the CDC:

“There is no evidence that COVID-19 can be spread to humans through the use of pools and hot tubs. Proper operation, maintenance, and disinfection (e.g., with chlorine and bromine) of pools and hot tubs should remove or inactivate the virus that causes COVID-19.
