Hot tubs and spas with more than 24 inches of water depth are regulated as pools under FL §515. A locking safety cover meeting ASTM F1346 standards satisfies the barrier requirement for most residential spas.
FL §515.25 defines spas and hot tubs over 24 inches as swimming pools. Boynton Beach requires an electrical and plumbing permit for spa installation. An approved ASTM F1346 safety cover meets the barrier requirement in lieu of fencing. Anti-entrapment drains and GFCI protection are required. Spas in screen enclosures on existing permitted pool decks often require only an electrical permit.
