Some of the key requirements for pool compliance in Victoria include:
1. Fencing: Pools and spas must be surrounded by a barrier that is at least 1200mm (1.2m) high and has a self-closing and self-latching gate that opens away from the pool. The barrier must be maintained in good condition and free from any defects that may compromise its effectiveness.
2. Gates: The pool or spa gate must be fitted with a child-resistant lock, and the gate must open outwards from the pool.
3. Climbable objects: Any object that a child could use to climb over the pool barrier must be removed or relocated.
4. Compliance certificate: A compliance certificate must be obtained from a pool inspector every 4 years.
Non-compliance with these regulations may result in fines or legal liabilities, and in some cases, may lead to serious accidents or injuries. It is therefore important to ensure that your pool or spa is compliant with the applicable standard to prevent such incidents from occurring.
