A Pool Safety Certificate confirms that a swimming pool or spa complies with Queensland's pool safety standards. It demonstrates that the pool barrier and associated safety features meet current legislative requirements.
A Pool Safety Certificate is generally required when selling or leasing a property with a regulated pool. It may also be needed in other circumstances to demonstrate compliance with Queensland pool safety laws.
For non-shared pools, a Pool Safety Certificate is valid for two years. For shared pools, such as those in apartment complexes or body corporate properties, the certificate is valid for one year.
The inspection assesses the pool barrier, gates, fencing, latches, and surrounding areas to ensure they meet Queensland safety requirements. The inspector will identify any non-compliant items that may need attention before a certificate can be issued.
If any compliance issues are identified, you'll receive information outlining the items that require rectification. Once the necessary repairs or adjustments have been completed, a re-inspection can be arranged.
Most pool safety inspections take between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the size of the pool area and the condition of the fencing and safety barriers.
