A: Before your pool is installed, be sure to find out about local building codes and safety standards such as required fences, gates, locks, and safety equipment.
Next, call your home insurance agent. Let your agent know that you are planning to purchase a pool and find out about your liability coverage and the possibility of increasing this coverage to protect against pool related accidents. Your insurance agent will be able to help you determine the amount of coverage that works best for you and your new pool. Learn more about pool safety this summer.
