Registration.
Register your pool or spa with your local council. Your local council will send a confirmation letter that will specify when your pool or spa was constructed and which Australian standard it will be inspected under. See below for checklist.
Inspection.
Book your inspection with Yarra Ranges Pool Inspections, have your pool or spa barrier inspected and if your barrier is compliant you will receive a certificate of compliance (Form 23) or recommendations to ensure your fencing complies with legislation and standards.
Certification.
Once you receive your certification (Form 23), it must be lodged with your local council for their records, this will be valid for four years.
Completion.
You’re all set and ready to enjoy your pool with reassurance your safety standards are up to date and no need to concern yourself with future inspections as we will make contact with you prior to your next inspection date.
