I have seen too many poor playground installations out there done by person(s) not knowledgable enough on the CPSC and ASTM standards for playgrounds. The International Playground Contractors Association however is working to provide customers with a certified contractor so that they know the installation will be done right. This helps when state and county inspectors stop by becuase of new legislation(Jarod's Law) in Ohio.
Since the inception in 1997, the International Playground Contractors Association (NPCAI) is a worldwide partnership to contribute to the advancement of the playground building industry by promoting playground installation as a legitimate contracting profession. The NPCAI currently serves over 260 playground professionals as members.
PLayground safety should not be comprimised, so please make sure your installer is certified. You would do it for your car, house, furnace etc. wouldn't you?
