Emergency Eye Wash Stations
Poolside eyewash stations are needed in the event of a chemical spill to help flush any hazardous chemicals from the eyes and face of any exposed individuals. This is important because, depending on the type of chemical, exposure can cause serious harm if it comes into contact with skin or eyes for an extended period of time. The water in the eyewash station helps dilute and flush any harmful particles that may be present on the skin or in the eyes, significantly reducing the risk of injury or illness.
Poolside eyewash stations can play an important role in mitigating potential injuries caused by chemical spills. All swimming pool chemical storage rooms should have an eyewash station ready in case of an emergency.
