HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?

The time is now to implement our proven, low cost, digital technology to help protect your swimmers and assist you lifeguards.

WHERE CAN WAVE BE USED?

Anywhere people swim!

WAVE is the world's only drowning prevention system that works in all types of water, including indoor or outdoor pools, waterparks, lakes, bays, rivers and more. It is not affected by water color, temperature, bubbles, currents or clarity, chemicals, minerals, vegetation, or marine life.

All components are designed to be weather-resistant for years of reliable service, and the system can be portable, installed permanently, or set up and taken down for seasonal use.

HOW IS WAVE INSTALLED? (SPOILER ALERT: IT'S NOT)

WAVE is actually deployed, not installed. In fact the system is virtually plug-n-play.

There is typically no need for permits, divers or licensed contractors and your facility can keep on operating while the system is set up.

There's no drilling, cutting, or retrofitting of pool decks, gutters, filtration systems, lighting systems, etc.

For permanent installations, the equipment can be mounted on walls*, desktops, poles, etc. When AC power is preferred, the otherwise portable system requires only standard low power cables.

* Some minor drilling is required for mounting equipment to walls.

WHY DO I NEED WAVE?

Your facility's lifeguards are extremely well-trained and vigilant. But they're also human and like any human they can be distracted by noise, heat, humidity, glare, blind spots, distortion in the water and more.

Whistles, walkie talkies and wall alert buttons simply are not as effective as WAVE digital solutions.

The truth is that of those drowning fatalities of children ages 5 to 14, more than half occurred at guarded facilities. Learn more about the real risk of drowning here.

A drowning can happen in just seconds. It is typically silent and without noticeable movement or actions by the victim. In reality it's nothing like what is depicted in movies or on TV. To most people a drowning victim simply looks like a person swimming or playing underwater. This makes it very difficult to detect, even for trained professionals.

WAVE works with facility lifeguards to monitor every swimmer in real time. Because every second counts, WAVE will help guards act on a possible event quickly at the first sign of danger.

HOW TO GET STARTED

The GUARDian Lifeguard Option is a wireless, easy-to-use technology that will alert your facility anytime a guard enters the water.  The Lifeguard bundle is an included feature in all WAVE systems or may also be purchased as a stand-alone system.

We'll work with you to configure a system unique to your needs, which will include the number of Lifeguard Tags you'll need.

The small tags will be used by your guards, either attached to their clothing, equipment or worn on a lanyard. Any time a guard enters the water, your facility will be notified via audiovisual alerts near the water and throughout your facility. Depending on your system, alerts can also be received on mobile devices.

HOW MANY SWIMMERS CAN WAVE PROTECT?

The GUARDian Hub is capable of reliably monitoring over 100 swimmers, and has a range of up to 700+ feet *.

When the number of swimmers is expected to be greater or the coverage area needs to be extended, additional Monitors and equipment can be integrated.*

* Like all wireless equipment range may vary depending on environmental factors.
