Do you have a pool? Are you thinking about getting a pool?
Fencing codes have changed!
Did you know :
Any pool over 24"deep requires a fence?
All gates are required to be self-closing and self-latching with latches placed at least 3" below the top of the gate .
Upon filling the pool with water it must have a temporary/permanent fence and 30 days thereafter, the pool MUST be surrounded by a permanent fence.
All house doors with direct access to the pool SHALL BE equipped with an alarm.
Use of the pool is prohibited prior to final electric inspection and a "Certificate of Completion"
STOP BY THE CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICE TO PICK UP THE COMPLETE SWIMMING POOL INFORMATION SHEET.
Even if your pool has existed for many years you may want to consider updating the fencing safety to todays codes. Better Safe than Sorry!
