NY Executive Law §387(14) and 19 NYCRR §1228.2 require ASTM F2208 pool alarms on all residential pools built or substantially modified after December 14, 2006. GFCI outlets, safety covers (spas/hot tubs), and anti-entrapment drains are also required.
Pool alarms must detect entry at any point on the pool surface. GFCI-protected electrical service is required for any pool or spa equipment under the National Electrical Code. The Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act (federal) mandates anti-entrapment drain covers for any public-accessible pool; residential pools installed after 2008 must also comply. Safety covers are strongly recommended and required in some municipalities for above-ground pools without barriers.
