Pool Code Compliance

    Pool & Spa Code Compliance

    Code-compliance verification only — anti-entrapment pool drain covers, electrical bonding, shock-protection outlet (GFCI) testing, barrier and gate compliance, Health Department documentation. (For weekly chemistry and open/close coordination, see our separate Pool & Spa Maintenance add-on at $55/mo.)

    What Code Compliance Covers

    Pool Drain Cover Compliance

    Federal law requires anti-entrapment pool drain covers. Replacements every 5–7 years. We track the install date and certificate.

    Electrical Bonding & Shock Protection

    Electrical code requires bonding of all metal components and shock-protection outlet (GFCI) protection on pumps and lights. Documented test on every visit.

    Barrier & Gate Inspection

    Self-closing, self-latching gates with 54-inch barriers per MD/VA/DC pool barrier codes. Photo-documented annual compliance survey.

    Water Chemistry & Equipment

    Quarterly equipment inspection, pump and filter pressure logging, heater operation check, and water chemistry baseline.

    Pool Code Checklist

    • Anti-entrapment drain cover age and certification check
    • Metal-component bonding continuity verification
    • Shock-protection outlet (GFCI) test on all pool circuits
    • Pool barrier height + climbability survey
    • Self-closing/latching gate hardware test
    • Pool light fixture seal inspection
    • Suction outlet count and configuration
    • Pump and filter pressure baseline logging
    • Heater and chlorinator operational check
    • Pool deck and coping condition photo log
    • Water chemistry baseline (FC, pH, TA, CYA)

    Liability You Don't See

    A failed drain cover or missing bonding can void your homeowner's policy after an incident. The cost of compliance documentation is a rounding error compared to the exposure.
