POOL SAFETY NETS, POOL FENCES AND MESH POOL COVERS
Swimming pools bring fun, relaxation and beauty into our lives, but with them come serious safety issues and obligations. If you pool, it’s up to you to keep children and pets from falling into the water, 24-hours a day, every day of the year – because a child can drown in less time than it takes to answer the phone. The statistics on drowning incidents involving children and young people are alarming, but these accidents are also preventable.
Katchakid offers swimming pool safety nets, mesh pool covers and pool fences; some of the most secure, proven pool safety barrier systems available today.
KATCHAKID: LEADING THE WAY
POOL NETS
Created by Katchakid in 1972, our innovative pool safety net cover has 50-year plus proven 100% safety record. Our pool safety net system meets stringent ASTM safety statutes, affording you one of the most secure pool barrier systems available today with the peace of mind you need. Endorsed by The American Lifeguard Association.
POOL FENCES
The Katchakid pool fence adds a vertical barrier, and has been specially designed to help prevent children from entering the pool area unsupervised. Fitted to any pool shape, our pool fence with its self-latching, key lockable gate helps to keep your swimming pool secure, and gives you quick and easy access.
POOL LEAF COVERS
Tired of wasting your valuable leisure time skimming your pool? The Katchaleaf custom-shaped mesh pool cover keeps out leaves, twigs, and bugs while allowing water to drain through. A perfect solution to keep your pool clean and ready to enjoy.
Where Innovation Meets Safety: The Esson Family Story
For the Esson family, pool safety has always been deeply personal. Blair Esson, the visionary inventor behind the Katchakid net pool cover, dedicated his life to drowning-prevention advocacy. Until his passing in 2024, he advised legislative drowning-prevention committees, charities, and nonprofit organizations. The Esson family continues this mission today, contributing their expertise to technical standards committees that help shape statewide pool-safety codes and regulations.
Blair’s son, Brad Esson, now leads Katchakid, Inc. as Director of Operations. To learn more about creating a safer pool environment, visit resources from the American Red Cross and the American Academy of Pediatrics.
