In the spirit of Halloween, Beachside Pool Service, the Newport Coast pool service with a sense of humor, is sharing just a few swimming pool horror stories.

Smelly Skinny Dippers

Late at night, who hasn’t wanted to take a dip au natural in the pool? Well this pool owner found a couple cavorting in his backyard pool sans bathing suits. Imagine the alarm!

Oh yeah, it wasn’t just any couple, it was a couple of skunks! Read his hilarious account of how he managed to get the skunks out of the pool and what the Humane Society recommends to keep wild animals from drowning in your pool.

It’s a Bird It’s A Plane

What’s that flying overhead at the speed of a locomotive? Is it a bird? Could it be a plane? It’s way too big for Superman!

No, it’s just a car that went flying through the air and fence and into the backyard swimming pool in Elk Grove, CA. Luckily no one was hurt when this car went into the pool.

The report at the time of the incident said the cause of the crash was unknown. We think the car just wanted to take a dip in the pool.

Elk Grove to Real Elks

If you think getting a car out of a pool in Elk Grove is a horror, imagine getting a real elk out of the pool!

That’s right an elk fell into a swimming pool in Sweden. The pool was covered, but the metal cover wasn’t sufficient to support 1,322 pounds of elk.

It took 7 men with ladders and ropes to get her out of the pool. And she didn’t even stay around to say thank you!

Heater and CO Horrors

A newly hired pool service company was called out to service a heated pool. Imagine the horror when the pool tech found this installation.

That’s a pool heater installed under a wooden deck. To make matters worse, the heater was not vented and a bedroom window was just 3 feet away, also under the deck!  Talk about an extreme fire and carbon monoxide poisoning accident just waiting to happen. Luckily, the new pool service company recognized the risk, disabled the heater, and then notified the owner verbally and in writing of the danger. They were then able to solve the problem.

The benefit of hiring a pool company with NSF Certified Pool and Spa operators like Beachside Pool Service is that they are trained to spot hazards and work to solve problems. Only hire a Newport Coast pool service company that is certified and trained to handle any problem they encounter.
