These standards aim to reduce the risk of drowning, particularly among young children. They apply to <strong>all outdoor pools that can hold 60 cm (2 ft) or more of water<\/strong>, including inground, semi-inground, above-ground pools, as well as removable or inflatable pools.<\/p>\n<p>Even pools installed before November 1, 2010 \u2014 which previously benefited from \u201cgrandfather rights\u201d \u2014 will have to comply. However, the government has announced an <strong>extension of the deadline<\/strong>, now set for <strong>2027<\/strong> for many of these installations, to give owners more time to meet the requirements.<\/p>\n<h3>Mandatory Fencing and Access Control<\/h3>\n<p>To ensure safety, most pools must be protected by a <strong>fence at least 1.2 metres (4 ft) high<\/strong>, except for certain above-ground or removable models that can comply in other ways (e.g., walls high enough and a removable ladder).<\/p>\n<p>The standards require that fences:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>prevent the passage of an object 10 cm (4 in) in diameter<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>cannot<\/strong> be <strong>easily climbed<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>have chain-link mesh openings of <strong>30 mm (1.2 in) or less<\/strong>, or be equipped with slats<\/li>\n<li><strong>cannot<\/strong> be <strong>replaced by a hedge<\/strong>, which is not considered compliant<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Every door or gate<\/strong> providing access to the pool must have:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a <strong>self-closing mechanism<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>a <strong>safety latch<\/strong> installed on the pool side or at a minimum height when accessible from outside<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Equipment and Clearances<\/h3>\n<p>Equipment such as the pump, filter, or heater must not be positioned in a way that could assist in climbing over the fence. They must therefore be <strong>at least 1 metre (3.3 ft) away<\/strong> from the fence or protected by a barrier at least 1.2 m (4 ft) high.<\/p>\n<h2>A Stylish and Compliant Solution<\/h2>\n<p>To meet these requirements while maintaining a modern look, our company offers <strong>tempered-glass fencing<\/strong> that fully complies with current standards.
