FAQs
Does this suit provide full UV protection?
Yes, it features UPF 50+ panels, providing excellent protection for the covered areas, though sun cream should still be applied to exposed skin.
Can this be worn in a swimming pool?
Absolutely. It is designed for both pool and beach use, providing comfort and protection in chlorinated water.
Is this a warm wetsuit?
It provides light thermal protection to keep a child comfortable, but it is not a heavy-duty neoprene wetsuit for cold-water swimming.
How should I wash the suit?
Rinse in fresh water after use. Hand wash only with mild soap if necessary and air dry in the shade.
What age group is the 5-6 size for?
The 5-6 size is specifically tailored for children in the UK size category of 5 to 6 years old.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels loose in the water
Ensure the suit is properly fitted; if it feels loose, check if the sizing is appropriate for your child's current age and frame.
Fabric irritation after use
Ensure the suit is rinsed thoroughly of all salt or chlorine residue after each use and allowed to air dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Splash About suit, always rinse it thoroughly with fresh, cold water immediately after every use, especially after contact with chlorine or saltwater. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, as these can degrade the UPF protective coating. To dry, hang the suit in a shaded area away from direct sunlight, as excessive UV exposure can eventually weaken the fabric fibers. Ensure you have the correct size for your child by checking the UK size specifications (e.g., 5-6) to ensure a snug but comfortable fit that doesn't pinch or limit range of motion.
