Evajoy above-ground pools 48 inches and taller recalled for drowning hazard
What this means
Evajoy above-ground pools 48 inches tall or larger have a compression strap around the outside legs that can act as a foothold, allowing children to climb into the pool. This creates a drowning risk even if the ladder is removed.
- Stop allowing unsupervised access to the pool immediately
- Drain the pool until you receive the free repair kit
- Contact Evajoy to request a free repair kit that removes the compression strap
- Do not rely on removing the ladder alone—children can still climb using the strap

The agency's original wording
The compression strap that surrounds the outside of the pool legs may create a foothold, allowing a child access to the pool, posing a drowning risk.
Consumers should contact Evajoy to request a free repair kit that removes the compression strap from the pool, while maintaining the structural integrity of the pool. In the interim, consumers should ensure that children cannot access the pool unattended or, alternatively, drain the pool until the repair can be installed.
