A hot tub or spa 24 inches or deeper needs the same non-climbable four-foot barrier as a pool, or a lockable safety cover. Coon Rapids requires a building permit for hot tubs and spas, an electrical permit, and a mechanical permit for the heater. Heated spas must have a vapor-retardant
Coon Rapids treats hot tubs and spas like pools: a building permit is required, an electrical permit is required, and a mechanical permit is needed for any heater. A hot tub or spa 24 inches or deeper must be surrounded by a non-climbable barrier at least four feet high with a self-closing, self-latching gate, unless a rigid, lockable safety cover serves as the barrier. Under the Minnesota State Residential Code (mandatory amendment R403.9.3), heated pools and in-ground permanently installed spas must be provided with a vapor-retardant cover. Pool and spa lighting must be shaded to reflect light away from neighboring properties, and gaseous chlorine disinfection systems are prohibited.
Missing the required barrier, cover, or permits fails inspection. The Chief Building Official may inspect at any reasonable time (City Code 12-512); nuisance operation is enforced under City Code 12-511.
