A hot tub or spa fitted with a safety cover that complies with ASTM F 1346 is exempt from the pool barrier/fence requirement in Snohomish County. Without a compliant cover, the spa must be enclosed by a code-compliant barrier like any pool.
Under the state Residential Code as applied by Snohomish County, spas or hot tubs equipped with a safety cover complying with ASTM F 1346 are exempt from the outdoor barrier requirement (IRC AG105 / AG109 exception). If the spa lacks a listed lockable cover, it must be surrounded by a barrier at least 48 inches high with a self-latching gate, the same as a swimming pool. Electrical connections for spas must be permitted and inspected. Public spas are regulated as water recreation facilities under state WAC 246-260.
A spa without a compliant cover or barrier is a code violation and drowning hazard; PDS can require a cover or barrier and electrical inspection.
