Are you lucky enough to have a swimming pool in your rental property? That’s a real asset! But have you checked to make sure you’re in compliance?

1. Compulsory equipment
Whatever the size of your pool, whether in-ground or semi in-ground, you must install at least one of the following 4 pieces of equipment:
- a protective barrier
- an audible alarm system
- a tarpaulin
- an enclosure covering the entire pool
With this equipment, you can protect people who come to your home, and protect yourself from accidents.

2. Fraud: what are the risks?
Here, we assume that your pool is already built and that you have completed the formal administrative formalities. We’ll only deal with the risks of not installing the necessary equipment. If you don’t, you could be fined up to 45,000 euros. But remember, it’s up to the seller of your pool to provide you with an informative technical note on safety equipment. If he fails to do so, he risks the same fine. Apart from the financial aspect, if an accident could have been avoided with this equipment, you risk a lawsuit in which you will lose, and a tragedy on your conscience.
Now that you know everything, you can take full advantage of what your pool can do for you! And if you’re still struggling to attract customers, here are some a few tips to keep them coming!
