A swimming pool adds great value to a property, it also offers an easy way to stay cool during the hot summer months, while spending memorable afternoons with your family. Even though a pool is fun for all the family, they also pose a safety hazard. To keep this area safe, homeowners should install pool fencing. However, there so many other reasons why pool fencing make sense.
Safety
Safety is one of the most important reason why the pool fencing is needed. Swimming pools are attractive to young children, pets, and other animals. Young children and animals can easily drown in pools that are unprotected by any type of fence; it is evident by the dramatic reduction in the number of children under the age of 5 dying from drowning since the introduction of pool fencing.
Legal Requirements
All residential neighbourhoods now require that swimming pools have fences around them to reduce easy access to children. Homeowners who doesn’t install fencing around their swimming pool are subject to penalties. So, a pool fence is not only a safety feature , but a legal requirement.
Attractive investment
Investing in pool fencing is important since you could risk hefty penalties it you don’t. Whilst prices vary depending on the materials and size of your fence, they do add value to your home, and they can add an extra feature to your landscaping. Good fencing is a lifetime investment.
Easy to use
Security fences are a great way to get in and out of the pool for frequent swimmers. When you are not using the pool, you can easily secure the area almost immediately with a self-closing gate, and when you are ready to go for a dip again, it only takes a few seconds to open the pool back up.
A pool is meant to be a place for relaxing and having some fun. It’s important to ensure that it remains a safe addition to your home and family.
