Winter is the perfect time to check your pool fence – not forget about it.

Just because your pool isn't being used, doesn't mean it's risk-free.

During winter, strong winds, rain and everyday wear can affect gates, latches and pool barriers without you noticing. Climbable objects like chairs, BBQs, pot plants and tree branches can also make your pool fence non-compliant.

In Victoria, pool and spa owners are legally required to maintain compliant barriers and obtain mandatory compliance inspections within the required timeframes.

Our experienced inspector, Tim, says the most common reasons pools fail inspections are faulty gate mechanisms and climbable objects within the Non-Climbable Zone.

Don't wait until summer to check your pool barrier. A simple inspection today could help save a life tomorrow.
