Jurupa Valley, CA Swimming Pools & Spas: Pool Permits (2026)

Permits are processed under Title 8 of the Jurupa Valley Municipal Code, which adopts the current California Building Standards Code (Title 24 CCR), including the California Building Code, California Residential Code, and California Plumbing/Electrical/Energy/Mechanical codes. State Health & Safety Code §115928 governs what the permit must require: (1) at least two circulation suction outlets per pump separated by at least three feet (or alternative skimmer/circulation system); (2) anti-entrapment grates meeting ANSI/APSP-16 (the federal Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act standard); and (3) the dual-drowning-prevention requirement of H&S §115922 — every new pool/spa at a single-family home must include at least two of seven approved safety features (perimeter fence per §115923, ASTM F2286 mesh fence, ASTM F1346-23 safety cover, door/window exit alarms, self-closing self-latching door device set ≥54 in., water-immersion alarm, or an equivalent UL-tested barrier). Final inspection cannot be signed off until these features are installed. Title 9 zoning controls pool location: pools and equipment must meet rear- and side-yard setbacks for the underlying zone, and pool equipment is treated as an accessory mechanical feature for noise compliance under Chapter 11.05. Plan submittals typically include a site plan showing setbacks, the barrier/fence detail, equipment location, and the bonding/grounding plan for electrical.
