Pools and Spas

Pools are any structures or products intended for swimming, bathing or wading; designed and manufactured to be connected to a circulation system; and not intended to be drained and filled with each use. This includes, but is not limited to, in-ground, above-ground and on-ground pools; and wading pools. Spas are vessels that contain heated water in which humans can immerse themselves. They are not pools, and are not bathtubs. When installed, these systems must comply with the Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Energy Code). This ensures energy savings for the building owner.
