Dear Customers:

It has come to our attention that a Chinese company called JaBo-HiTek is selling a pool alarm which strongly resembles the Poolguard PGRM-2 In ground Pool Alarm in appearance. The product is sold under the following names: JaBo-HiTek, China Pool Alarm, JB2005, JaBo USA, and Pool Protector. It is commonly sold through personal protection websites but may be sold under other means as well such as Ebay. The product is a close replica of Poolguard which we believe results in a violation of the trade dress laws of the United States. In our opinion, the workmanship of the JaBo alarm is no where near the quality of Poolguard and, as of August 1, 2007, we have no indication that the JaBo alarm has been third-party verified to meet the ASTM F 2208 Safety Standard for Pool Alarms. We have already received reports of false claims made by JaBo-HiTek about its alarm meeting European standards. We are currently considering taking legal action against this company. Be aware that you should only buy our Poolguard from our authorized vendors listed on this website. We have seen the JaBo alarm sold under our trademark name by unauthorized vendors and we do not want our customers purchasing this product thinking that it is manufactured or warranted by our company.

Sincerely,

Merle I. Stoner
President
