Over the last few years there have been other alarms that have looked like the Poolguard, offered the same guarantees as the poolguard, they have even copied the operating instruction word for word.
The names they have gone under are JB 2005, ALPOOL, PROTECTOR, AQUA ELITE, AGUA ALERTE , KOENIG , POOL ALERTE and others...
The above are all Chinese copies of the poolguard and as such are imitations.

The Poolguard has been tested by the Consumer Product Safety Commission and has a history of over 25 years.


The Picture above is of the JB2005 although is still being sold stating that it complies with the French AFNOR regulations (NF90-307/A1) BUT ON THE 7th September 2006 the Tribunal of Commerce of Marseilles stated that it did not comply.


Poolguard also does not comply with the AFNOR regulations but also has never stated it ever did, Poolguard complies with the American regulations which carry out there own stringent tests. The Poolguard In-Ground and Above-Ground Pool Alarms were tested by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF). Each model was found to be in compliance with the new ASTM International Standard for Pool Alarms, ASTM F2208-08. ASTM revised the safety and performance standard for pool alarms in 2008 at the request of the U.S.

 Consumer Product Safety Commission. Poolguard Alarms Model PGRM-2 and PGRM-AG were thoroughly tested to the performance requirements and test procedures of ASTM F 2208-08. Poolguard Pool Alarms now have the NSF Certified Mark.


The document put forward as a 'Certificate of conformity to NF (Normes Française) laws", is in fact a "partial verification" document. It has been declared invalid for use as a full certificate of conformity and revoked by the issuing body, INTERTEK ETL SEMKO.


There is only one Poolguard alarm and that is the PGRM-2E, don't buy inferior copies that may cost less but have no history and are there just to make a quick profit.
