This past summer proved that pool safety is still a serious issue that must be addressed by government, industry, and individuals.

The United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CSPSC) recently released a snapshot report that indicates that during the summer of 2014 there were 174 child drownings in swimming pools and spas. They also compiled a list that ranked states from highest to lowest in terms of how many child drowning deaths were reported by the media. Florida came in sixth with 10 drownings. California and Texas came in at the top with 21 and 20 drownings respectively.

While it is commendable that Florida had half as many drownings reported as the leading states, these types of deaths are tragically unnecessary. For decades, government programs have educated adults and children about pool and water safety. Regulations have been passed to increase the safety standard in pool products used. There is a current campaign, called the Pool Safety Pledge, designed to educate adults and children even more stringently than before with an added commitment to follow pool safety principals.

Industry specific organizations like the National Swimming Pool Foundation (NSPF) work with government agencies to provide swimming pool operators, installers, and maintenance workers with the latest and most up-to-date safety information and training. In turn, these swimming pool companies should work to educate their clients and provide sound safety advice when designing and installing pools and spas.

That is exactly what Pool Doctors of the Palm Beaches does. This company has served the greater Palm Beach area since 1984. They have actively sought after the information and training needed to be fully informed and competent on behalf of their customers. It’ll be two and a half years since they received their last CPO certification through NSPF. It’s good for five years, so in a few years Pool Doctor of the Palm Beaches will go through the certification process again. They belong to the Florida Swimming Pool Association (FSPA), which serves as a non-profit industry check and balance and vets their pool company members. Pool Doctor of the Palm Beaches also writes extensively about pool and water safety in their blog.

There are standard services that Pool Doctor of the Palm Beaches provides their customersthat promote safety. These services include, but are not limited to:

  • New pool construction to current safety standards.
  • Recommendations and quotes on renovating and updating existing pools to current safety standards.
  • Assistance with purchasing appropriate safety products for a given pool or spa. Safety products include safety pool covers and appropriate drain covers.
  • Tips on other safety features the pool owner should be aware of. (For example, a suitable pool enclosure to monitor and control pool usage.)
  • If desired, development and execution of a regular pool maintenance program geared towards pool safety.

While Pool Doctor of the Palm Beaches makes sure they have their certifications and training up to date and are actively promoting safety on their website (http://www.poolspalmbeaches.com/tag/pool-safety/), ultimately it is the pool owner’s responsibility to ensure that the Pool Safety Pledgeis followed.

The Pool Safety Pledge (http://www.poolsafely.gov/pledge/) is a pledge that adults and children take. It highlights certain safety rules that each must observe. One such example is that kids pledge to never swim alone and adults pledge to designate a life guard during swimming activities. The pledge and associated campaign is still in full swing even though the summer is coming to an end, especially after the child drowning snapshot for the past summer came to light.

As Florida does not necessarily deal with swimming pool down-time due to the winter season, Pool Doctors of the Palm Beaches continues to promote the safety pledge and the swimming pool safety principles behind it.

The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AMG in chronic migraine prevention and will cover 12 weeks. Qualified participants may receive either one of two doses of the medication or a placebo in a subcutaneous injection. After the 12 weeks, participants will have the option to receive the actual investigative medication at a specified dose.

To qualify for this study, participants must:

  • Be at least 18 years old
  • Have headaches at least 15 days out of a month, with 8 or more of those days being migraine days, for 3 months prior to the study
  • Meet other study eligibility criteria
Alzheimer’s Research The Center is also participating in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, fixed dose study of Lu AE58054 in patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease controlled by Donepezil. The study is scheduled to last 28 weeks and the qualified participants will swallow a pill of the investigative medication or a placebo once each day. Qualified participants must:
  • Have been receiving a drug containing Donepezil for the last 6 months, at a dose of 10-mg per day for the last 4 months.
  • Be diagnosed with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s Disease.
  • Be age 50 or older

Pool Doctor of the Palm Beaches is announcing that they are offering in-ground pool construction for homes in the West Palm Beach and Boynton Beach areas.

Across the nation, there are more than 4.5 million homes with in-ground swimming pools. Florida contains the second largest number of private pools statewide at just over 650,000.Roughly ten percent of Florida homes have swimming pools. This statistic is expected to increase in number. People may choose to construct an in-ground pool for a variety of reasons which boil down to two:

  • An in-ground swimming pool adds value to the property. A well-constructed, well-designed, and well-maintained pool will add about eight percent to the value of the property when the owner goes to sell it.
  • An in-ground pool adds quality of life to the home. Many households prefer to have a private swimming pool in the backyard for family and social gatherings or just general summer fun. Not only is a pool social-friendly, but a well-designed pool can add aesthetic beauty to the backyard.

Once a homeowner has decided to research constructing a pool on their property, they’ve already decided an in-ground pool will add to their lifestyle. At this point they are trying to determine what materials to use, what shape and depth they want, certain aesthetics, their budget, and who they can trust with such a large project.

Florida is a prime location for residential pool construction. It is a state where the swimming season is year-round and the cost of labor is relatively low (as compared to other states). There are a large number of pool companies and the competition helps to keep the price down. However, pool design and installation is still likely to run into the tens of thousands of dollars and building an in-ground pool is a major construction undertaking and requires specific engineering expertise. The old adage “you get what you pay for” certainly applies.

Homeowners must wade through the pool installation options available. A handy resource is the Florida Swimming Pool Association (FSPA), a non-profit group that works as a vetting organization for pool companies. This association verifies the company’s reputation, certification, and associated licenses. If the company is a member of the FSPA, then the homeowner can be assured the company has a minimum quality standard.

Choosing a company vetted by the FSPA is the first step towards choosing a reputable pool installation company. Another important factor in determining whether a company is trustworthy is how long the company has been installing pools. Experience is desired for this type of project. Also, the longer the company has been serving the community, the better the data for quality of service. More time means more customers, more customers means more reviews and references, and it is more likely that the Better Business Bureau will have a report and grade for the business.

Pool Doctor of the Palm Beaches is a pool installation and maintenance company that has been in the pool business since 1984. It is a member of the FSPA and has been CPO (Certified Pool Operator) certified by the National Swimming Pool Foundation.

The Costa Rican real estate market is now flooded with fully furnished American-style homes. Six years ago that was not the case.

Six years ago, Costa Rica had an intense real estate market that did not have many American-style homes already constructed for sale at a reasonable price. There were plenty of Tico-style homes for sale; however, many American expats learned that while the Tico homes were in the price range they wanted, these homes did not really meet their lifestyle preferences.

Tico homes tended to run smaller and did not always include certain amenities Americans expected, such as a dryer hook-up in the laundry room, hot water in the shower or an open floor plan. Expats were left with the choice of building their ideal home in paradise from scratch, or spending an exorbitant amount for one of the few American-style homes available.

Fast forward to today and a search of real estate listings shows a new trend. There are American-style homes for sale at reasonable prices and they are being sold fully furnished. Many of these homes served as rental properties and the owners do not wish to deal with the logistics of moving, selling, or getting rid of the furnishings involved.

The advantages to purchasing a fully furnished home for the buyer are:

  • They do not have to outfit the home from scratch. The buyer can walk through the home and pick and choose what furniture and appliances they wish to keep, and what they wish to replace.
  • They do not have to ship down a whole household from the States. Everything that comes into Costa Rica has to go through customs and gets assessed a duty tax (even used items). The buyer of a fully furnished home could choose to only ship a few key items, saving a great deal on shipping costs and duty fees.
  • They have time to ship and/or replace items. The buyer of a fully furnished home could prioritize the items they want to replace and plan strategically how they will do so. They can choose whether or not it is an item that they need to import from the U.S. or whether it can be purchased in country. There is more flexibility because the home is usable as is.
  • They may move - in or rent the home immediately. If the home is a primary residence, the home buyer could choose to move-in immediately and slowly renovate as they wish. If the home is intended as a rental, the buyer can almost immediately turn around and rent it out.

It appears that this trend of selling fully furnished homes has become a major selling point in Costa Rica’s buyer’s market as property owners and real estate agents try to get the sale. Nearly half of the constructed homes for sale are listed with the option of purchasing it fully furnished.

The Ackerman’s relocated to Costa Rica a number of years ago and now sharetheir experiences and other tips regarding Costa Rica in hopes of helping others contemplating a similar move. If you are interested in subscribing to their blog or to keep up to date on the property listings, including those available fully-furnished, please sign up at http://ackermanrealtyinternational.com/subscribe-today/.

Some examples of fully furnished properties that are currently for sale are:

  • Villa la Costa. This estate is a blend of modern and traditional elements and was featured in “Estilos y Casas”. The main house involves 2,450 square feet of living space, 3 bedrooms, and 3 ½ bathrooms. The guest house has a bedroom and bath, plus a living room and fully equipped kitchen. The property has been designed to blend indoor and outdoor living. It comes with a large terrace, private pool, and views of the beach just beyond the backyard. It comes fully furnished, including some modern art pieces created by local Costa Rican artists. The asking price for this house is $1.1 million dollars. (http://ackermanrealtyinternational.com/properties/villa-la-costa/)
  • Casa Exotica. Located in Esterillos Este this home is situated between major tourist attractions. It’s equipped to sleep 10 people with 4 bedrooms and 4 ½ bathrooms. Fully furnished, in this case, means the house comes with kitchen and laundry appliances, furniture in every room, and entertainment items (i.e. ping pong table, books, games, TVs, DVD player, etc.). It is satellite and internet ready. It has a garden and pool. The fully furnished home is on the market for $800,000. (http://ackermanrealtyinternational.com/properties/casa-exotica/)
  • Casa de Vista. If you’d rather, up in the mountains of Costa Rica is a 7-acre property that overlooks the Orosi Valley. The open floor plan offers panoramic views with access to wrap-around balconies and decks. The main floor consists of a well-designed kitchen and great room divided into living spaces with the furniture. A master suite takes full advantage of the views. Below the main floor is a separate, fully equipped, one bedroom apartment. On the property is a caretaker’s house. You can purchase this property fully furnished for $550,000. (http://ackermanrealtyinternational.com/properties/casa-ackerman-2/)
  • Rio Tranquilo Home. On the Osa Peninsula just outside of Puerto Jimenez, lies a boutique development that technically does not fall into the "move-in ready" category. However, it is investment-ready. It has already been subdivided into lots. Amenities have been brought to the property. There is a caretaker on the grounds. One lot has been developed with a home and garden. Another lot has young teak trees that will be ready to harvest in a short while. The asking prices for these lots range from $85,000 to $175,000.
