Pbm pgrm-sb2 Floating Pool and Spa Alarm Safety Buoy

Product Description

The PBM pgrm-sb2 is a floating pool and spa alarm designed for use in above ground residential pools and spas, including quick-set, soft-sided, and portable above ground installations. The unit floats on the water surface and employs sub-surface detection technology to sense unauthorized or accidental water entry. When triggered, it alerts occupants both at the poolside unit and through an included in-house remote receiver with a range of up to 200 feet. The pgrm-sb2 is NSF certified to the ASTM F2208 pool alarm standard, making it the only floating alarm to carry this certification under that specification. Pool service professionals and residential installers use this device as part of a layered water safety strategy.

This alarm is suited for residential above ground pools of all common types, including quick-set, soft-sided, and portable frame pools, as well as above ground spas. Its floating design requires no permanent mounting or plumbing penetrations, making it straightforward to deploy at the start of a season and remove for storage. The remote receiver keeps an indoor alert active up to 200 feet from the pool, giving occupants inside the home audible notification when the alarm is triggered at the water surface.
