Sun, a BBQ, cold drinks and a swim in the pool is the perfect summer day for many Aussies. Having your very own pool allows for endless swimming, recreation, and fitness opportunities during the year. Not to mention the socialising aspect and the transformational effect it can have on your outdoor area. Here at Barrier Reef Pools Melbourne, we create luxury fibreglass pools fit for everyone and every backyard.

Getting a pool is not something that you do every day, and while it is an exciting time, there are some formalities involved with the process and some obligations you will have after your pool has been installed that you should be aware of. Below is some information regarding this.
Knowing the Safety and Planning Laws for Melbourne
Pool safety and planning laws are implemented across the nation, with the main objective being safety. Your pool must be constructed safely, it must be safe to swim in and to be near when not in use. The regulations and rules surrounding this are not the same from state to state. Here is what you need to know about Melbourne's pool safety and planning laws:
Your pool builder will need a building permit approval before they can start any work and these are typically obtained from a registered building surveyor. To be issued with this permit, certain paperwork must be submitted, and it must include specifics of the pool build, such as the pool's filtration system, the pool's safety barrier, the design and location. If all this information isn't lodged with the application, it is unlikely to get approved. This is not something you'll have to worry about happening as our pool builders do this daily and know exactly what needs to be done to obtain approvals fast. Once your permit has been approved, your pool builder has to start within 12 months of receiving it, and once they have begun work, it must finish within six months of starting. It is your responsibility to maintain your pool fencing and ensure it is in optimal working order at all times as well as ensuring that the gate is never propped open and that there are no objects that can be used to climb on near the pool fence both on the inside and outside.

Which fibreglass pool is best suited to me in Melbourne?
Installing a pool with us here at Barrier Reef Pools Melbourne means that you have no shortage of options, but this can sometimes make the decision-making process that much more difficult. Some of the many things you need to consider are the pool size and design, the colour, the flooring for around the pool, your pool fencing, landscaping and the inclusions that you'd like to add to your pool, if any, such as lighting and smart cleaners.
Some key factors to take into consideration are:
-
Your budget.
-
Your lifestyle and what you'll likely use your pool for most, i.e entertaining, exercise etc.
-
The space you have for your pool, and the possibilities of where it can go.
-
The style of your home and what pools will complement the existing design.
Our team specialise in pairing people with the pool of their dreams, and they will guide you through the entire process to find a pool design and layout that you are entirely happy with.
Can I use my pool all year round with Melbourne's weather?
Melbourne is one of the colder states and swimming amid winter with no form of heating whatsoever, isn't likely to appeal to many. While you can use your pool year-round, will you realistically want to? Heating is something we recommend to those living in cooler states as it can be a complete game-changer when it comes to the overall enjoyment you get out of your pool. Rather than waiting for the weather to be warm enough to swim, you can heat your pool on demand and use it comfortably when your heart desires. There are quite a few options to choose from, allowing you to find the perfect one for your swimming requirements and budget.
Here at Barrier Reef Pools Melbourne, we are members of SPASA and proud members at that! SPASA recognises pool companies for their high ethical standards and high-quality builds.
