Check your local laws and ordinances. If the walls of your pool are less than 48 inches up out of the ground than you definitely need a pool barrier. Even if your wall are over 48 inches out of the ground your local department of inspections or even your insurance company may still require a pool barrier. Make sure the pool barrier you purchase meets the guidelines for your area. A good place to start is with a publication put out by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. You can download a copy from the links below. Every and all pools should have a barrier around them. If your city or state does not se fit to make an ordinance requiring fences on all pool parimeters then your insurance may require it. You run a risk of having someone get injured or drown in your pool without proper Fencing. Also, you may run the risk of having your homeowners insurance cancelled for not complying especially in the event of a disaster of having someone drown in your pool.
