Hot tubs and spas in Pembroke Pines fall under the same safety requirements as swimming pools under FL Statute 515 and local code Sections 150.50–150.52. A safety barrier meeting the 48-inch height requirement is mandatory unless the hot tub has a locking safety cover approved under ASTM F1346. Building and electrical permits are required for installation. Hot tub equipment (pumps, heaters) must comply with Chapter 96 noise provisions, particularly Section 96.06 addressing fans and air conditioners. The water must be maintained clear and free from algae, insects, or unsanitary conditions per the property maintenance code. Electrical work must comply with the Florida Building Code and NEC.
No barrier around an unsecured hot tub violates FL Statute 515. Unpermitted installations are building code violations.
