Knowing the Safety and Planning Laws for Napier
Right across New Zealand, there are pool safety and planning laws. They can vary though depending on the local council area where you live. These are the rules that are in place in Napier:
You may need to obtain building consent for your new pool, and you do need a building consent to build your pool fencing, and it needs to meet specifications as outlined within the jurisdiction.
Inspections of your pool fencing will need to be done every 3 years. These will need to be done by a Napier City Council Officer or an independently qualified pool inspector (IQPI). You will receive a letter in the mail outlining the date of the inspection and the fee associated with the service.
You are responsible for maintaining your pool fence and making sure that it is in good working order at all times.
You must ensure that your swimming pool doesn’t contaminate the public water supply by either installing a hose-tap vacuum breaker on the hose that fills the pool or installing a backflow prevention device where the water meter is on the property’s boundary.

Which fibreglass pool is best suited to me in Napier?
There isn’t one prominent type of pool that people choose here in Napier, it more comes down to their backyard size and swimming requirements. Those with smaller backyards can’t typically have large pools and will have to opt for smaller varieties instead, whereas those with big backyards commonly choose bigger pools. Fibreglass pools tend to be more popular than other types of pools due to their quick installation and simple maintenance. Choosing the right one is easy for some, but not so easy for others. There are a lot of factors to take into consideration – the size, shape, colour, sanitisation method and inclusions are a few of the many. Regardless of what your preferences are, our team are experts at matching people with the perfect pool design to create a recreational haven that’ll be enjoyed for many decades to come. While our team will guide you through all of your options, some things for you to think about to make the decision-making process easier would be:
Potential pool locations. Considering the flow of the backyard and aesthetics.
How many people and who will be using the pool. For example, if the elderly or people with limited mobility will be using it, steps that run right down to the floor of the pool would make getting in and out easier and safer rather than choosing a pool with one large step into the pool.
Think of the colour palette or theme of your backyard and which pool colours would compliment this best.
What will be the primary use of the pool? Relaxation? Fun? Entertaining? Knowing this can help you find a pool that ticks all your boxes.
Can I use my pool all year round with Napier's weather?
When the winter chills start to kick in, swimming typically becomes a thing of the past, well, momentarily at least. Some people are not very tolerant of cold water even in the warmer months, so if this is you or you want to be able to swim into the evening or when the weather cools down, pool heating may be something you could benefit from. They enable you to control the temperature of the pool, and you can heat it as warm as you desire.
Fibreglass pools pair well with heating as they heat up quickly and stay warmer for longer. This means you won’t have to run your heating system excessively to heat the pool. Using a good quality pool cover can help to trap in the warmth when you are not using it and can reduce your running costs.
As locals ourselves, nothing makes us prouder than creating a dream pool for our fellow Napier residents. Our commitment to delivering premium pool installations is what sets us apart and why more Napier locals choose us.
