Pool construction in Shawnee must meet the adopted building/residential code, covering barriers, electrical bonding/grounding and approach surfaces. A building permit and inspections are required.
Building a pool in Shawnee means building to the city's adopted residential and pool codes (IRC/ISPSC), and the code's concerns go past the water's edge. Barriers must secure the pool against unsupervised access; electrical bonding and grounding — the safety system tying the pool's metal parts and equipment together — gets its own inspection; and approach surfaces around the pool are covered too. A building permit is required, with inspections along the way. Loop in the building department at design stage so the barrier and electrical work pass the first time.
