Required Barriers: How do I make my pool safe and ready to pass final inspection?
Access walls & gates (gates must be self-closing) are done at this time. Types of barriers required (items, as defined by your city/county, which restrict access to the pool) can differ depending on the city you live in. The pool cannot be finished until your city is satisfied all required barriers are in place and functioning. Be sure to remember that the wall height required by your city code is measured from the outside of the wall. Occasionally, a neighbor will have piled dirt or built a planter against his/her side of the wall. If the inspector sees this, the final inspection will not be approved until the situation has been remedied. If it happens to you, don’t panic. There are always ways to work out a solution. This is also the time when we must install your door alarms (if appropriate). We will need access to the inside of house for this, so expect a call so we can coordinate with you.
