Pool Safety Codes & Compliance
Keeping your pool safe and secure should be priority number one. The risk for accidental drownings is drastically reduced when the proper precautions are taken, which includes adding a fence and ensuring that access is controlled with adequate gate hardware. It's crucial that children cannot access the pool area when they are unsupervised to keep them safe.
There are many laws and ordinances that are put into place to increase pool safety at both national and local levels. These regulations mainly revolve around having an effective barrier surrounding the pool and maintaining secure access points, such as doors and gates. BOCA includes many different requirements, it's important to familiarize yourself with these standards as well as your local ordinances when installing or maintaining a pool.
