Fencing Requirements

Pools, spas, and hot tubs require a barrier at least 48 inches high with openings that will not pass a 4-inch sphere and gates that are self-closing and self-latching. Public/semi-public pools are separately regulated by the Hawaii Department of Health under HAR Chapter 11-10, which requires a 4-foot enclosing fence. Compliance is verified at final inspection by Maui County Department of Public Works, Development Services Administration.
