Pool installation in Ontario is regulated through municipal building permits and the Ontario Building Code. A building permit is required for pool enclosure (fencing) in most municipalities, and many require permits for the pool itself if it holds more than 600mm (24 inches) of water. Electrical work for pool equipment must be performed by an ESA-licensed electrician, and gas heater installation requires a TSSA gas technician certificate. Pool contractors are not required to hold a specific provincial licence, but reputable builders carry liability insurance and are often members of the Pool and Hot Tub Council of Canada. A property survey conducted within one year is typically required for the permit application.
