Frequently Asked Questions

Q. What are pool tile messages?

These are ceramic tiles with safety messages (like "no diving" or "shallow water") or depth numbers permanently fired into the glaze. They are installed into the pool wall or deck during construction.

Q. Are tile signs better than stickers?

Yes, for longevity. Tile messages are permanent, frost-proof, and chemical-proof. They will not peel, fade, or wear off like stickers or paint, making them the gold standard for new pools. They are a premium version of pool rules markers.

Q. Can I add tile messages to an existing pool?

It is difficult. usually, tiles are installed during construction or replastering. however, "frost-proof" ceramic markers can sometimes be overlaid on existing decks. You can also use pool stencils for a non-tile option.

Q. What are "smooth" vs "skid-resistant" tiles?

Smooth tiles are for the vertical water line inside the pool. Skid-resistant tiles have a textured surface and are required for the horizontal deck to prevent slipping. This aligns with warnings from slippery when wet swimming signs.

Q. Are depth marker tiles mandatory?

Yes, public pools must have depth marker tiles installed at the waterline and on the deck at specific intervals (usually every 25 feet and at depth changes). You can view available options under pool depth markers - feet.
