Here you will find an extract from Spanish Law which demonstrates the need for a safe and non-slip surface around your pools. Spanish Swimming Pool Law: Communal Pools Deck characteristics-The deck is considered the area immediately around the pool. The deck should have a minimum width of one metre and should be of a material that prevents slipping. Its design should prevent the formation of puddles and the flow of water back into the pool. Showers- Showers should be placed in the vicinity of the pool area. Numbers of showers should be at least equal to the number of pool ladders. The shower base must be non-slip with a sufficient slope to allow for drainage. Shower heads should be replaced on a yearly basis for the purposes of hygiene. Other signs that should be displayed in prominent positions are: · Water depth signs at both ends of the pool and intermittently depending on the length of the pool.
