Verdict
The risk of drowning for children (especially under 5 years) is high and
reasonably predictable, either during the bathing period or at other times.
Therefore it is recommended for adult supervisors to:
– secure the means of access to the swimming pool; or
– install a protection device; and
– keep the children under constant supervision.
For pools relying on a specific means of egress such means shall not be
removed when the pool is in use.

4.6.2
Safe access to the swimming pool
The access to the above ground pools or partially buried pools (coming
from outside to inside the pool) can be secured by using a safe access
according to the requirements stated in § 5.4.4. Moreover the swimming
pool shall be designed such that, once installed, unauthorized access to
the pool for children (especially those under the age of five years) by
striding over/climbing over is limited. The safe access to the basin is met
when:
– the height between the highest bearing point (according to the
requirements stated in 5.5) and the upper level of the finished pool
is greater than or equal to 1100 mm or;
– the height between the ground and the lowest bearing point
(according to the requirements stated in 5.5) is greater than or
equal to 1100 mm, or;
– the height between two consecutive bearing points (according to
the requirements stated in 5.5) is greater than 1100 mm.
If:
– the above requirement is not satisfied and/or
– the means of access according to the requirements stated in 5.4.4
is not safe; or
– no means of access is provided with the swimming pool.
Then the manufacturer of the swimming pool shall recommend that the
access to the finished swimming pool should be secured by a protection
device to prevent children drowning.
To prevent children drowning, inground pool manufacturers shall also
recommend to secure the access to the finished pool with a protection
device. The following warning "In order to prevent children from drowning,
it is recommended to secure the access to the pool with a protection
device" shall be present for the consumer in the information before
purchase and in the safety instructions.
