Swimming is an important recreational activity in most people, there is a high demand for the use of swimming pools, which makes them more susceptible to microbes and be a vector of infectious diseases, thus increasing the percentage of injuries and risks caused by their use. Accordingly, preventive measures and measures must be put in place to reduce the risk of these places. So we have done tests of swimming pool water, where the biological factor is an indication of the health of the water and make it safer when using, the greatest damage is biological. In this research we dealt with the three most important microbial tests approved by the Palestinian Ministry of Health and global health, namely total chain reaction, and to investigate the compliance of swimming pools water with environmental and puplic healthy agencies , guidelines, and regulations.The samples taken showed that the bacteria screening of all did not exceed the standards approved by the Palestinian Ministry of Health and World . But check been showed that 8.3% of the sample is not matching adopted in the pools A, B and E for , and in pool C presented in 66% of the sample were not accepted but presented about 40% in pool D which were not acceptable to Palestinian criteria. As for the E. coli bacteria, they appeared in one sample each in A, B and C, while Pool Ewas clean and did not appear in any sample. Quite the opposite in Pool D which had of E.coliin two samples.And for the first time, we did a reaction of these samples, to confirm the presence of these types of bacteria, in addition to knowing the microbes that were present in the pool before. We also took samples from the backwash of the filters and were examined by polymerase chain reaction and we noticed the presence of numbers of bacteria common between the samples and thus confirm the passage of swimming pool water, so the result is interrelated between the pool and the filter and the relationship is strong between them in getting better results for swimming pool
