SASDEC23

Seems like a great deal , we are on tank so maybe a bit much to fill at 4678l !! and how long you can leave the water in the pool?

Use code SASDEC23. This expires today.

Good date night if you can't leave the house! Cracking price, cheapest elsewhere is 170++

  Depends on how much you love bacteria.

  Of course the main cost is in getting a compliant pool fence consented and constructed to go with it.

    Yep is a fully fenced rear section enough or does it need another fence around it specifically.

    Understand possibly different by council area too.

      From the amount of above ground pools I see in summer from the street with no fence makes me think councils don't really care.

      A fully fenced rear section isn't enough if there is direct access to the pool from the house in any way - there needs to be a fence between the 2 to be compliant (height of said fence may depend on the council) which isn't usually the case with backyards

        That doesnt seem correct.
        F9.3.4
        Where a building forms all or part of an immediate pool area barrier,—
        (a) doors between the building and the immediate pool area must not be able to be readily opened by children, and must either—
        (i) emit an audible warning when the door is open; or
        (ii) close automatically after use:
        (b) windows opening from a building into the immediate pool area must be constructed or positioned to restrict the passage of children.

          @Foodie: Yes, those are alternatives to fencing but I don't know of any houses with self-closing or alarmed doors without handles at child height as standard so it's likely they will need to be installed but yes, the pool owner can choose that route instead of a fence.

            @Melse: Its quite cheap to get a magnetic door sensor and alarm these days, and doors can be left locked with keys taken out of the door.

    Im sure not many people care for the fencing rules, i asked on a local fb page to see how everyone has their setups and no one commented at all. We have a fully fenced back yard but a fold out washing line attached to the fence so not able to have a bigger pool. Im paranoid about getting a huge fine and having to pay someone to check the property so i just bought a very small paddling pool for when im heavily pregnant and struggling to deal with the heat 😄

      You're probably right on this - at minimum you'll get a lot of hassle if not a fine, and since pools that fill to less than 40cm are excempt thats a good solution.

      The councils are tasked with both keeping track of which properties have pools, and whether they are compliant. They use satellite and aerial photography datasets to identify pools that haven't been included on the existing property record, and those property owners are then contacts to remediate.

      And from seeing someones fencing bill, its a couple of magitudes higher in cost than this pool.

      Also before anyone complains about the current government, previous government, or the term before that, you'll need to direct your complaints to The Building (Pools) Amendment Act 2016 passed under the last term of National government. It had a time window where councils had to make rules to align with the act, so most people didn't notice until several years later when the councils put in the new rules they were required to.

      The overall theme of the legislation is about reducing risk for young children around pools.

      I’m not paranoid of a fine but of that extremely unlikely but possible situation where a child ends up in the pool unknowingly.
