How high does the fence have to be for swimming pool in west valley city Utah?

in a residence yard in a mobile home == Most areas of the country require a 4 foot high fence where other need 5 foot high. There are other considerations you need to think about as well. The horizontal members (like on a wood, vinyl or ornamental fence) need to be at least 45 inches apart and the vertical members (pickets) have to be spaced less than 4 inches apart. Your gate needs to be self-closing and self-latching. The latch also needs to be mounted in such a way that the release mechanism is 54 inches up from the bottom of the gate frame. Most manufacturers have specific designs meant to pass the pool code, I recommend you take advantage of these. You should also check with your local department of inspections because every area may vary some. This will soon become a thing of the past because back in December of 2007 a national pool code was signed into law. This law puts the Consumer Product Safety Commission ( CPSC ) in charge of standardizing these laws. For years the CPSC has had some Excellent brochures on pool safety enclosures. The law is called the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act of 2007 . Please check the links below for more information.
