Outdoor Swimming Pool Supplies & Accessories

Complete your pool area with outdoor pool supplies and accessories from Pentair and other leading suppliers. PST Pool Supplies stocks the safety signage, lane rope and float systems, and equipment accessories that every pool area needs — from required safety signs to lane dividers and maintenance hangers, starting from $11.80.

Lane rope and float systems from Pentair provide pool zone separation and safety barriers: the RFK22 22' Rope and Floats Kit is the largest configuration, suited for pools up to 20' wide; shorter rope kits are available in 16' (R181226), 18' (R181216), and 20' (R181206) lengths for narrower pools or shorter separation distances. All Pentair rope kits attach to wall anchors and support brightly colored floats that create clear visual separation between shallow and deep zones. Safety signage is a legal requirement for many pool types and a best practice for all residential pools: the No Diving Allowed Sign (R231200) is required by most local codes for pools that do not meet diving geometry standards; the Pool Rules Sign (R230400) and Spa Rules (NC) Sign (R234200) set behavioral expectations for swimmers and spa users; the No Lifeguard Sign (R230500) is required at any unguarded pool by many municipal codes; the Pool Closed Sign (R231400) provides clear communication during maintenance or chemical treatment periods; the Water Condition (VA) Sign (R234200) is used in commercial aquatic environments. The Pentair Rainbow #153 Hardware Kit (R221030) provides the mounting hardware for signage installation. The Pentair 167 Hose/Pole/Accessory Hanger (R221054) is a deck-mount or wall-mount storage hanger for pool cleaning poles, vacuum hoses, and brushes — keeping pool cleaning equipment organized and off the deck surface between uses. The Party Pool Blue Lagoon color additive (8 oz) temporarily tints pool water a vivid blue for parties and special events without affecting water chemistry.

Pool safety signage is one of the most overlooked yet legally significant aspects of pool ownership. In most U.S. jurisdictions, residential pools are required to post at minimum a No Diving sign (if the pool does not meet diving geometry) and often a No Lifeguard on Duty sign. Commercial pools, HOA pools, and aquatic facilities face more extensive signage requirements under state health codes and ADA accessibility regulations. Beyond compliance, clear signage establishes behavioral expectations that reduce accident risk. When installing signs, use corrosion-resistant stainless steel or plastic hardware (not standard steel fasteners, which rust and stain pool decks) and position signs at eye level in clearly visible locations near pool entry points.

Shop outdoor pool supplies and accessories and complete your pool area with the safety, organizational, and recreational essentials every pool needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pool safety signs are legally required for residential pools?
Pool signage requirements vary by state and municipality, but common legal requirements for residential pools include: (1) No Diving sign — required by most local codes for pools that do not meet the minimum diving geometry (typically 8'+ depth at the board end and a sufficient diving envelope). Even pools without a diving board may be required to post this if the deep end is less than 8 feet. (2) No Lifeguard on Duty sign — required in many jurisdictions for any pool that is not staffed with a certified lifeguard during use. (3) Pool Rules sign — commonly required for HOA, community, and commercial pools; increasingly recommended for residential pools as documentation of safety rules communicated to users. State-specific signs (like the Virginia Water Condition sign or North Carolina Spa Rules sign) are required in those jurisdictions for commercial aquatic facilities. Always verify requirements with your local building department or health department — residential pool signage codes vary significantly between municipalities. Posting all recommended safety signs regardless of strict legal requirement is always advisable as a safety and liability measure.
How do I install a pool lane rope and float system?
Pentair rope and float systems require wall anchor fittings installed in the pool walls at each end of the rope line. If your pool already has wall anchors (stainless steel fittings mounted in the pool wall at the break line between shallow and deep ends), installation is straightforward: (1) Thread the rope through the float series — the floats slide onto the rope with the colored sections facing outward. (2) Attach one end of the rope to the wall anchor fitting using the rope's looped end or a stainless hook. (3) Pull the rope taut across the pool to the opposite wall anchor and secure. The rope should sit just at the water surface with the floats buoyant and visible. If your pool does not have wall anchors, anchors must be installed — this typically requires a pool professional or contractor to drill into the pool wall and epoxy-set stainless anchor cups. For vinyl liner pools, anchor installation requires a vinyl liner fitting specifically designed for liner walls. The correct rope length: measure the pool's width at the intended lane line position and order the next size up (16', 18', 20', or 22') to allow for a comfortable attachment loop at each end without excess slack.
How do I store pool cleaning poles and hoses when not in use?
Proper storage of pool cleaning equipment extends its life significantly. The Pentair 167 Hose/Pole/Accessory Hanger (R221054) is a deck- or wall-mount hanger designed to hold pool poles, vacuum hoses, and brushes vertically or coiled — keeping them off the pool deck (where they create tripping hazards, absorb UV damage, and collect debris) and organized for quick access. For vacuum hoses: coil loosely in a large diameter loop (never tightly — tight coiling creates permanent kinks that restrict suction) and hang or store in a shaded location. UV exposure is the primary cause of hose degradation — store hoses out of direct sun when not in use. For telescoping poles: store fully collapsed in a vertical position. Check the locking cam mechanism (the button or lever that locks the pole sections) seasonally — debris in the cam slot causes the pole to slip during use. Rinse poles and hoses with fresh water after each use to remove pool chemicals that accelerate material degradation over time.
What is the Party Pool color additive and is it safe for pool water?
The Party Pool Blue Lagoon color additive is a temporary pool water tinting product that turns pool water a vivid blue-green color for parties and special events. The dye is formulated to be non-toxic, non-staining, and compatible with standard pool water chemistry — it does not affect pH, chlorine levels, alkalinity, or other chemical parameters. The color fades naturally over 24–72 hours as the pool's circulation and filtration system processes the dye, or can be accelerated by superchlorination. The 8 oz bottle treats a standard residential pool. Important caveats: (1) Do not use Party Pool dye in pools with cartridge filters that use white filter fabric — the dye may temporarily stain the cartridge; run a sand or DE filter during use or clean the cartridge thoroughly after the dye fades. (2) The dye temporarily changes the apparent color of the pool bottom and walls, which may make it harder to see swimmers underwater — use with appropriate supervision. (3) The product is designed for recreational use and should not be used regularly — it is a special-occasion additive, not a regular pool chemical.
