Since the law of 3 January 2003, all owners of private in-ground or semi-inground pools must comply with strict safety standards, under penalty of sanctions. In this article, we detail the devices to be installed, the legal obligations and the good practices to guarantee the conformity of your swimming pool.
The pool enclosure is a solution that is attracting more and more owners. It not only protects the pool from dirt and bad weather, but also makes access to the water safer and extends the swimming season. However, the installation of a pool enclosure must comply with strict standards, in particular the NF P90-309 standard, to guarantee optimal safety and comply with the law.
The NF P90-308 standard is one of the regulations introduced in France to guarantee the safety of private swimming pools. This standard sets out the requirements for safety covers, which must protect the pool from accidental falls, especially those of young children. Installing a cover that complies with this standard makes it possible to secure your pool while complying with the law.

Failure to comply with this obligation exposes the owner to significant financial penalties and may incur civil and criminal liability in the event of an accident.
