What makes pool landscaping compliant in Canberra?

Compliant residential pool landscaping in the ACT requires adherence to AS 1926.1-2012 standards with a 900mm Non-Climbable Zone (NCZ) free of footholds, frost-resistant Zone 7 plantings, and heat-reflective paving materials. All pools must be certified by May 2028 under ACT regulations.

What are the best plants for pool areas in Canberra?

Zone 7 frost-hardy species like Westringia 'Naringa', native grasses, and locally-sourced plants from Corkhill Bros nursery thrive in Canberra's heavy clay soil and survive temperatures down to -7°C.

Why is travertine better than other paving for pools?

Travertine paving stays 20-30% cooler than concrete or granite in full sun, reaching only 38°C compared to 62°C for dark granite, making it safe for barefoot use during Canberra's 35°C+ summer days.
