What pool safety equipment do Airbnb hosts need?
Quick Answer
Airbnb hosts with a pool must provide a secure perimeter fence or self‑closing gate, a removable safety cover, and basic lifesaving gear such as a ring buoy and reaching pole. Install a fence that meets local BC code and keep the latch self‑closing and self‑locking; maintain a cover that can be quickly deployed and stored when not in use.

Install a fence that meets local BC code and keep the latch self‑closing and self‑locking; maintain a cover that can be quickly deployed and stored when not in use. Keep the ring buoy and reaching pole mounted on a wall bracket or in a waterproof container within arm’s reach of the pool. Post clear safety rules and emergency contact numbers at the poolside and include them in your listing description.
