• A Pool Safety Inspector assesses the pool, spa, and barriers so they comply with Australian Standards and State regulations.
• Inspection typically takes about 20-minutes.
• The Property Owner or Manager doesn’t need to be present  – as long as access is provided.

The Top Reasons for Failing a Pool Safety Inspection are

1. Faulty gate hinges or latches
2. Climbable objects near the fence
3. Insufficient fence height
4. Gaps in or under the fence exceeding 100mm, or
5. Missing or outdated CPR signage

We guide you through this process so you reach compliance

Before the pool safety inspector arrives, you can check

• Trees, vegetation and objects are not in the 900mm arc of the Non-Climbable Zone
• Fences are at least 1800mm high with no more than 100mm gaps in between and under fences
• Gates are self-closing and self-latching
• CPR sign is installed within 3m vicinity of the pool

That’s completely normal – many pools and spas require minor repairs or rectifications to meet compliance standards.

If a Pool Safety Inspector finds your pool doesn’t comply with the fence and barrier safety regulations, a Certificate or Notice is issued outlining the required fixes.

In NSW, you’ll have 12 months to complete the necessary repairs. However, councils must be notified of non-compliance within:

QLD in 90 days
NSW in 6 weeks
VIC in 60 – 67 days

Some rectifications need a licensed builder. Choosing the right professional avoids unnecessary expenses and makes sure the work is completed correctly – the first time.

Swimming spa pools need a compliance certificate. However, different standards may apply.

A compliant spa requires a

• child-resistant, lockable lid, or
• child-resistant barrier built to the regulations
• visible CPR signage within 3 metre vicinity
