The safety of private swimming pools has been a legal requirement in France since the law of 3 January 2003. In order to limit the risk of accidents, particularly drowning of children, owners of in-ground and semi-inground swimming pools must install a safety system that complies with standards NF P90-306 to P90-309. There are several solutions, ranging from barriers to covers, alarms and shelters. Each of them meets specific criteria in terms of safety, maintenance and aesthetics.
