Inspections

What are the pool and spa barrier requirements in Victoria and how do you check yours?

In Victoria, pools and spas are subject to registration and to periodic inspection and certification of the safety barrier, and the detail can depend on when the pool was built. An independent barrier check describes the condition of the fence, gates and surrounds so you know what to fix before the statutory inspection. Your council confirms what applies.
