Description

F9/AS2 provides a means of compliance with Building Code Clause F9. 

Clause F9 has the requirements to prevent unsupervised access by children under five years of age to residential pools.

It requires barriers around pools to restrict unsupervised access by children. Barriers can include gates and suitably constructed doors. Some small heated pools may have a removable cover rather than a surrounding barrier.

F9/AS2 provides the Acceptable Solution for covers which may be used on above ground small heated pools.

Scope

This Acceptable Solution applies to covers for small heated pools with a water surface area of 5 m² or less and with walls that are 760 mm above the adjacent floor or ground. To comply with this Acceptable Solution, a cover must be able to be readily returned to the closed position by an adult.
