“According to National Institutes of Health, Drowning is the 2nd or 3rd leading cause of unintentional injury deaths among children under 15 in industrialized countries, with children under 5 facing the highest risk. In the U.S., the drowning rate for children under 5 is 3.9 per 100,000. Installing pool fencing reduces the risk of drowning by approximately 73%.”

California Building Code (CBC) Section 3109 – California law requires that all residential swimming pools be enclosed by a barrier at least 60 inches high. The barrier must not allow the passage of a 4-inch sphere, and pool gates must swing outward, close automatically, and latch securely. Latch mechanisms must be positioned at least 60 inches above ground level to remain out of reach of small children.
Santa Barbara County pool barrier requirements – Local enforcement aligns with the CBC and may include additional safety measures such as non-climbable materials and alarmed or self-closing doors and windows when the home provides direct pool access.
