Nueces County has no hot-tub ordinance. Texas Health & Safety Code Chapter 757 applies its 48-inch enclosure rule to spas at multiunit rental and POA complexes, while Corpus Christi's adopted ISPSC lets a listed, lockable safety cover substitute for a barrier on private spas.
Chapter 757 applies only to pools and spas owned, controlled, or maintained by a multiunit rental complex owner or a property-owners association, and to doors and windows opening onto those pool yards; those spas need the same 48-inch enclosure and self-latching gates as pools. For private residential hot tubs, the city-adopted International Swimming Pool and Spa Code allows an approved safety cover with a locking device in place of a full barrier. Public spas register with Texas DSHS. Unincorporated Nueces County sets no separate spa rule.
Covered rental/POA spas without a compliant enclosure violate Chapter 757; a private spa relying on a cover must keep it locked when unattended or fail city inspection.
