Swimming pools provide years of entertainment for family members and pets. Homeowners that have recently installed a swimming pool may not know that they require a four-sided fence in Canada around their swimming pool area.

Here is what homeowners need to know about pool fencing courtesy of Parashute.ca:

• Specifies self-closing and self-latching gate.
• Specifies minimum height of 1.2 m (4 feet)
• Defines pool as having a water depth of at least 0.6 m (2 feet)
• Includes in-ground, above ground and inflatable pools
• Specifies fence construction that inhibits climbing

Homeowners looking for a fence for swimming pools turn to welded wire fencing to satisfy this requirement. Weld wire fencing comes in different heights and mesh dimensions to satisfy pool code and look great in backyards!
