Pool/Spa Safety Barrier Requirements
Barrier Requirements
All swimming pools and spas capable of containing water to a depth greater than 300 mm (30 cm) must be registered with council and have a compliant safety barrier to restrict access to the pool area by young children under the age of five. Barriers are required for:
- in-ground pools and spas.
- above-ground pools and spas, including relocatable and inflatable pools that are capable of holding more than 300 mm (30 cm) depth of water and require assembly on site.
- indoor pools and spas.
- bathing and wading pools capable of containing more than 300 mm (30 cm) depth of water.
Registration Requirements*
On 1 December 2019, new laws to improve swimming pool and spa safety came into effect in Victoria. They introduce new registration, inspection and certification requirements for property owners.
It is now mandatory for swimming pool or spa owners to have their safety barriers inspected and to lodge a certificate of barrier compliance with their council every four years.
Inspection Process
As a pool or spa owner you need to complete the following steps
Step 1: Register your swimming pool or spa with the relevant council
Step 2: Arrange an inspection with Metro Pool Compliance
Step 3: Rectify any issues identified at your pool inspection (if required)
Step 4: Submit a certificate of barrier compliance (Form 23) to your council every four years
