Fence and permit rules
The City requires a permit for a pool or hot tub. Alberta's pool enclosure rules call for a fence at least 1.8 m high with openings no more than 100 mm, and a self-closing, self-latching gate with the latch at least 1.5 m up. A pool that predates the current code may still need upgrades if you change it.
The cost of an Edmonton pool season
An outdoor pool here is open for a short summer, then needs closing, a cover and protection from frost. Ask the seller for a year of receipts: chemicals, heating, opening and closing, and any repairs to the liner or pump. That annual figure, not the build cost, is what you will live with.
What a pool checklist covers
- Ask for the pool permit and the age of the heater, pump and liner.
- Measure the fence and test the gate: it should close and latch by itself.
- Ask what the winterizing and opening cost each year and who did it.
- Check insurance before you remove conditions; some insurers ask about pools.
Marketing a pool home
Pool buyers are a small group, so the team markets a southwest pool home to them directly and prices it on comparable estate sales, not on the pool's build cost.
