July 2, 2024 - Spending the summer in the comfort of your own backyard has endless benefits, but prioritizing safety is the key to enjoying the season and outdoor space to the fullest. With summer in full swing, Peerless-AV is sharing top tips to create a safe outdoor experience for friends and family to enjoy.

Play Safely

When preparing your backyard for the summer, keep in mind key safety measures to take. Ensure any gates and doors are self-closing and self-latching to prevent children from wandering into dangerous areas. Regularly inspect and maintain outdoor equipment such as swings, slides, and trampolines to ensure they are in good condition and safe to use.

Additionally, consider stocking a “summer caddy” filled with water bottles, snacks, sunscreen, and more. This will offer a quick and easy solution to ensure family, friends, and other guests are hydrated and protected from the elements all day long.

Swim Safely

If your outdoor area has a pool, following swim safety rules and guidelines are integral to a worry-free summer. Never leave children unsupervised around water, no matter how shallow. Additionally teaching swimming skills and using life jackets or floaties when necessary for weaker swimmers will allow everyone to enjoy the water safely.

In a commitment to our industry, and with the introduction of our innovative Neptune™ Outdoor Smart TVs, Peerless-AV has partnered with Swim With Purpose — an organization dedicated to reversing the alarming trend of pool-related fatalities among minority children, who face a 50% higher risk of drowning compared to their non-minority counterparts. This commitment is a testament to our dedication to fostering safer and more enjoyable outdoor spaces.

Enjoy Safely

Once you’ve identified and taken care of these different safety measures, the last thing you’ll need to do is sit back and enjoy! To take your outdoor oasis and experience up a notch, the Neptune™ Full Sun Outdoor Smart TV is designed with the maintenance-free features of Peerless-AV® solutions to shine in open-air spaces of all kinds.
