All residential swimming pools in Daly City must comply with California Health & Safety Code §115920 (Swimming Pool Safety Act), requiring a minimum 60-inch barrier. Two drowning prevention safety features are required.
Under California H&S Code §115920-115929 (Swimming Pool Safety Act), all new residential pools must be enclosed by a barrier at least 60 inches (5 feet) high with self-closing, self-latching gates. The barrier must have a maximum 2-inch ground clearance and no openings allowing a 4-inch sphere to pass. Gates must open outward away from the pool and self-latch at a height of at least 60 inches. Two additional drowning prevention features are required (e.g., door alarms, pool alarm, safety cover, or removable mesh fence). Daly City Building Division enforces these requirements.
Non-compliant barriers: immediate correction required. Fines $100 to $500. Liability for drowning incidents significantly increased without proper barriers.
