Pomona pools must comply with CA Swimming Pool Safety Act and Virginia Graeme Baker Act for drain covers. Two compliant barriers must be installed, inspected, and approved before filling.
Under the California Pool Safety Act (SB 442) as enforced in Pomona, new or remodeled pools must have a physical barrier and at least two of seven drowning prevention safety features: an enclosure isolating the pool from the home; removable mesh fencing meeting ASTM F2286-05; a safety pool cover meeting ASTM F1346-91; door alarms or gate alarms meeting UL 2017; door closing/latching systems with latches at 54+ inches; or pool alarms meeting ASTM F2208. Anti-entrapment covers on circulation drains are also required. Pool alarms must sound upon unauthorized entry into the water.
Non-compliant pools may not pass inspection or receive final permit approval. Homeowners can be held liable for accidents. Insurance claims may be denied for non-compliant pools.
