In unincorporated Weld County, installing a hot tub or spa requires a building and electrical permit under the county's adopted 2018 ISPSC. Public and semi-public spas are additionally regulated by Colorado's 5 CCR 1003-5.
Weld County treats spas and hot tubs as pools under its adopted 2018 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code, so an in-ground or plumbed spa needs a building permit and an electrical permit covering bonding and GFCI protection. Public and semi-public spas (at HOAs, apartments, gyms, or lodging serving the public) also fall under state regulation 5 CCR 1003-5, which caps public spa depth at four feet and adds water-quality, operator, and inspection requirements. Home-rule cities such as Greeley and Evans regulate hot tubs within their limits.
Installing a spa or hot tub without required building and electrical permits, or failing to meet sanitary standards for a public spa, is a violation enforceable under county code and state rule.
