From January the 1st 2004, underground, private, in individual or
collective using swimming pools must have a security system to anticipate
the drownng risk in accordance with the law N°2003-9 of January
the 3rd 2003.
In France, the drowning
is the first reason of mortality in accidents in the home for children
under 5 years. A lapse of concentration, the children unpredictable
behaviour, or the inadequate protection of the pool and it's enough
!
- If the pool was built
earlier than the 1/1/2004, the security system must be installed
before the 1/1/2006, except collective using pools (camping, hotel…)
and real estate in location (yearly or seasonal) for wich the upgrade
dead line is the 5/1/2004.
- In case of pool under construction, the security system must be
installed at the moment of the construction from the 1/1/2004.
The no respect of the law
n°2003-9 of January the 3rd 2003 is punished by a 45000 euros
fine and above all, the responsability of the pool owner or administrator
could be implicated.
