Code Compliance
Katchakid Inc. has for decades ensured that its pool safety barriers are manufactured and installed to the most stringent safety directives. If your swimming pool is new, or you are fostering, adopting or starting a daycare facility, and your pool has yet to pass an inspection we recommend you research the exact code requirements and installation specifications before installing the pool safety barrier. Although we will do our best to advise you of local requirements Katchakid, Inc. can make no prejudgment as to the suitability of its barriers for the purpose of satisfying any authority and or agency.
Building and health departments can impose stricter or rapidly changing amendments, and field inspectors have discretionary authority to fail a barrier if they believe a unique site condition—such as climbable landscaping, grade irregularities, or door-alarm settings—still puts a child at risk. Because those judgment calls and local add-ons lie outside our control, final approval ultimately rests with the governing jurisdiction, not the installer. Our commitment is to design and install to the highest published code, flag known red-flags in advance, and make any reasonable adjustments requested by the authority having jurisdiction, but we cannot offer an unconditional pass guarantee.
