Your Pool Compliance Inspection in St George

Your pool inspector will issue either a Certificate of Compliance or a Notice of Non-Compliance. Both the property owner and the local St George council authority will receive notification of this outcome.

The Pool Certificate of Compliance is valid for three years and certifies that on the date of issuance, the swimming pool met the requirements of the Swimming Pools Act 1992.

Which pools must comply with NSW regulations?

All pool structures capable of holding 300mm of water or more and used for swimming or other aquatic activities must comply with NSW swimming pool laws. These include:

• Concrete or fibreglass pools
• Inflatable pools
• Temporary or wading pools
• Above-ground pools and spas

When is a pool inspection required?

In NSW, a professional pool inspection is mandatory before selling or leasing a property. This includes:

• When selling the property.
• When renting or leasing the property – owners must include a current pool certificate of compliance in the lease agreement to legally lease a property with a pool.

It is advisable for buyers to obtain an independent pool inspection when purchasing a property with a pool.
