135I.2 APPLICABILITY.
This chapter applies to all swimming pools and spas owned or
operated by local or state government, or commercial interests or
private entities including but not limited to facilities operated by
cities, counties, public or private school corporations, hotels,
motels, camps, apartments, condominiums, and health or country clubs.
This chapter does not apply to facilities intended for single family
use or to a swimming pool or spa operated by a homeowners'
association representing seventy-two or fewer dwelling units if the
association's bylaws, which also apply to a rental agreement relative
to any of the dwelling units, include an exemption from the
requirements of this chapter, provide for inspection of the swimming
pool or spa by an entity other than the department or local board of
health, and assume any liability associated with operation of the
swimming pool or spa. This chapter does not apply to a swimming pool
or spa used exclusively for therapy under the direct supervision of
qualified medical personnel. To avoid duplication and promote
coordination of inspection activities, the department may enter into
written agreements with a local board of health to provide for
inspection and enforcement in accordance with this chapter. Section History: Recent Form
