PPRBD issues all pool permits for Fountain: building permit (structure/plumbing), electrical permit (circuits/bonding), and gas/mechanical permit (heaters). Required inspections include pool structure, circulation/drains, electrical bonding, backflow, gas piping, fence/barrier, and final inspection.
