Swimming pool regulations 2025

As of January 1, 2025, new residential pool safety regulations came into force in Quebec. These regulations apply to all outdoor pools with a water capacity of 60 cm or more, including in-ground, semi-in-ground, above-ground and even demountable pools such as inflatables.

These regulations impose precise standards to improve safety and prevent the risk of drowning, particularly among young children. In-ground and semi-in-ground pools must now be surrounded by a fence at least 1.2 meters high. Above-ground pools with a wall less than 1.2 meters high, and demountable pools less than 1.4 meters high, must also be secured by a similar fence.

The required fencing must prevent the passage of a 10 cm diameter ball and must not be easy to climb. If fencing is made of chain link, it must not exceed 30 mm, or must include slats. Plant hedges are not recognized as a valid solution under the new standards.

Another important point concerns access to the pool: each door or gate must be fitted with an automatic locking device and a safety latch, placed on the pool side or at least 1.5 meters high if outside.
