Abstract :
Swimming pools can be a medium for disease
transmission through pool water intermediaries.
Pathogenic microorganisms can enter the pond directly
or indirectly through contaminated air, soil, dust,
rainwater, human or animal waste, and shower waste.
This study aims to observe the number of bacteria found
in the water of the UNP, ABG, and Teratai swimming
pools in Padang. This type of research is a non-specific
observational analytic design with a cross-sectional
research design. Samples were taken in the form of
swimming pool water as much as 100 mL and a depth of
20 cm from the surface of the water. Each sample was
taken to the laboratory to determine the number of
bacteria present in each swimming pool. The results of
observation I showed no bacteria in the morning or
evening in the UNP swimming pool water, while in
observation II there were bacteria with numbers
exceeding the swimming pool water quality standards.
Meanwhile, the ABG and Teratai pool water contained
several bacteria that exceeded the swimming pool water
quality standards in observations I and II, both in the
morning and in the evening.
