Do I need a permit for swimming pool or spa in Town of Windsor?

Permit required

Yes. In Connecticut, swimming pool or spa generally requires a permit, and Town of Windsor is no exception.

Only prefabricated pools 24 inches deep or less are exempt (CSBC R105.2, Building item 7); Connecticut defines a residential pool as one able to hold water more than 24 inches deep. No building permit may be issued for building or substantially altering a residential pool unless a pool alarm is installed with it (CGS 29-265a). Pools follow the 2021 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code as amended by Connecticut, which requires a temporary construction fence at least 4 feet high around in-ground pools until the permanent barrier is complete (ISPSC 305.1.1 as amended). State law requires notice to the Call Before You Dig clearinghouse before excavating or demolishing (CGS 16-349).
