What do I need to know about baby pool fences?

Keep Your Baby Safe Around Water

As any parent knows, the capabilities of babies change daily. In order to adapt to their growth and expanding curiosity, a baby pool fence should be installed and maintained. A see through mesh type fence should completely surround the pool, with a minimum height of 48 inches. As your baby becomes a toddler, keep all climbable objects away from the fence in the event they could enable a toddler to gain access over the fence. Approved pool safety covers can add yet another layer of protection. Additionally, perimeter yard fences should have self-closing and self-latching gates.
