What equipment do you need for a in ground jacuzzi?

Answer 1

As far as a barrier is concerned you will need a fence that meets the same requirements as a pool fence. The barrier will need to be at least 48 inches tall. If it is a picket style fence with spacing between the vertical members, no spacing can be over 4 inches (I recommend no greater than 1-3/4 inches). The horizontal members should be greater than 45 inches apart and the bottom of the fence should be no more than 2 inches up off the ground level (or deck surface). The gate needs to open away from the jacuzzi. You must use self closing hinges and self latching hardware. The release mechanism for the latch must be installed above 54 inches. This makes the Magna Latch and Tru Close Hinge the perfect fit. This is not a comprehensive list of requirements and certainly different areas of the US may have varying pool code requirements. For this reason check with your local department of inspections or other governing body.
