PGRM-SB2 | PoolGuard Floating Pool & Spa Alarm

The PoolGuard PGRM-SB2 Floating Pool & Spa Alarm is a high-performance safety device engineered for above-ground pools, spas and other residential water installations. This floating alarm uses proven sub-surface detection technology to sense unauthorized entries or objects over 18 lbs and triggers a loud 85 dB horn that can be heard both poolside and indoors via the included remote receiver (up to 200 ft range). Certified to the ASTM F2208 standard and built in the USA, this unit offers constant protection, tamper-proof design and automatic reset—raising the safety bar for pool and spa owners who need a reliable, always-on alarm solution.

Highlights

• Certified and Reliable Protection: Independently NSF-certified to the ASTM F2208 standard, meeting rigorous safety specifications for residential pool alarms.

• Floating & Portable Design: The alarm floats on water and can be easily moved between pools or spas, making it ideal for above-ground, soft-sided or portable installations.

• Remote Monitoring Included: Comes with an in-house receiver powered by 12 V, offering alert range of up to 200 ft so you’ll know if the alarm is triggered even indoors.

• Tamper-Proof & Always Active: Once placed in the water the alarm is always armed and cannot be turned off; plus it sounds if removed from the pool without entering sleep mode.

• Low Battery & Easy Install: Powered by a single 9-volt battery (not included) for up to ~1 year of use; audible low battery alert ensures you’re always protected.
