We are putting a water feature (waterfall) right next to our adjoining fence. When I say 'right next to', I mean practically touching. The waterfall is 800mm in depth and is 1200mm tall. We are actually upgrading our adjoining fence to Colourbond, the standard size being 1800mm tall. This means there will be 600mm above the waterfall to the top of the fence. Is this an issue? Our neighbours don't have a pool, nor do they really have room for one. I know there has to be a zone of 900mm of climable objects but that is from the 'non-pool' side. This is really the only spot for the waterfall so I really hope this is not an issue. If anyone can shed any information on this it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Whilst this reply is probably too late for the original post, for others, you need to be aware that any fence of conductable material e,g, steel, aluminium etc that is within "arms reach" of 1.25m from the pool edge must be earth bonded to the house earth system.
