When choosing a new apartment or condo, residents ranked pools and hot tubs as the second most important amenity following on-site washers/dryers
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- VivoAquatics, a leading water management solution company, today announced the results of an independent survey that gathered insights from residents of multifamily properties with 250 units or more and with access to a shared pool or hot tub. Respondents demonstrated a strong interest in their communal pools and hot tubs, with 44.22% saying that having access to these amenities is either a high or very high priority. Also, respondents ranked pools/hot tubs as the second most important factor when choosing a new apartment or condo – only following on-site washers/dryers.
In addition to showing that these pools and hot tubs are in high demand, the survey found that many residents are happy with the condition of their property's water features. More than 60% said they're satisfied with the sanitation and cleanliness of their shared pools and hot tubs, and the same percentage said that maintenance is either good or excellent.
However, 58.29% of respondents remain concerned about chlorine levels and bacteria in the water, demonstrating a lingering worry despite an otherwise positive sentiment.
"It's clear that pools and hot tubs are highly valued amenities at apartment and condo complexes," said Richard Lindhorn, vice president of marketing and corporate development for VivoAquatics. "At VivoAquatics, we encourage multifamily property owners and managers to invest in proactive water management to help maintain high-quality pools, hot tubs and other water features year-round. While it's fantastic to see that so many people are satisfied with the cleanliness and maintenance of their property's pools and hot tubs, owners and managers can take this one step further by implementing technological tools that will allow them to conveniently monitor pH levels, chlorine levels and more in real time."
This is where VivoAquatics comes in. With its innovative technology, properties can access valuable data on water quality, temperature, chemical balance and more from anywhere, at any time. This instant access ensures that any deviation from safety parameters can be identified and addressed as quickly as possible, reducing the risk of issues like waterborne illnesses and alleviating concerns for residents.
This can also help limit unwanted pool and hot tub closures that result from unresolved, ongoing issues. To underscore the importance of this, almost half (45.73%) of VivoAquatics' survey respondents have experienced an unexpected pool or hot tub closure at their residence for reasons outside of weather conditions.
"By investing in the right tools, multifamily property owners and managers can help ensure that their residents have access to the best managed pools and hot tubs possible," added Lindhorn.
VivoAquatics provides multifamily properties, hotels, municipalities, fitness centers and other facilities with comprehensive water safety, conservation and compliance solutions.
