We have a water table exhibit, and we are not subject to any health department regulations.
To ensure clean and safe watet, we keep a daily log which details maintenance procedures such as once a week full clean and water drain, daily testing of ph and chlorine, daily applications of chlorine and other chemicals, filter changes, etc... When we are really busy, additional maintenance procedures are done on an 'as needed' basis.

Our water table uses fresh tap water instead of recirculating. It does not
run constantly and is only on when the button is pressed for about thirty
seconds.

Does anyone have a Water Table type exhibit and if so, are you subject to
Health Dept. regulations for swimming pools and spas? What type of
procedures do you use to assure clean and safe water in the exhibit?
