Pool construction in Rohnert Park must meet the California Building Code and Swimming Pool Safety Act — barriers, anti-entrapment drain covers, and electrical bonding. A building permit and inspections are required.
Rohnert Park reviews pool construction under the California Building Code (Title 24) and the Swimming Pool Safety Act, and three systems get particular attention. Barriers must control access to the water. Drains must carry VGB-compliant anti-entrapment covers — the federal standard that prevents suction entrapment. And the pool's electrical system must be properly bonded so metal parts and equipment share the same electrical potential. A building permit is required, with inspections verifying each element. Bring the building department in at design stage; pools fail inspections on details, not concepts.
