Pool safety in unincorporated Ventura County is governed by the CA Swimming Pool Safety Act (HSC 115920-115929) and Title 24. All pools require barrier protection plus at least one additional safety feature. Anti-entrapment drain covers are required.
The Swimming Pool Safety Act requires all pools to have barrier protection (5-foot fence with self-closing/latching gates) plus one additional approved feature: pool alarm, safety cover (ASTM F1346), isolation fence, or alarmed doors. Anti-entrapment drain covers compliant with the Virginia Graeme Baker Act are required. CPR signage must be posted. Building & Safety conducts inspections. Real estate transactions require pool safety compliance certification.
