Bellevue — Ch. 8 Buildings, Housing, and Construction § 8-87
Inlet supply fittings
Operative Text
In-ground swimming pools and spas shall be provided with at least two filtered water inlet supply fittings.
Section 8-87 of Bellevue's Buildings, Housing, and Construction code establishes a minimum equipment standard for in-ground swimming pools and spas: each such installation must have at least two filtered water inlet supply fittings. This requirement is a baseline safety and functionality measure, ensuring that water circulation is not dependent on a single inlet point. The rule applies to in-ground pools and spas as a class, regardless of size or use.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Bellevue Ch. 8 § 8-87, property owners with in-ground swimming pools or spas are generally expected to ensure that each such feature is equipped with a minimum of two filtered water inlet supply fittings. Compliant operators typically verify this during installation and confirm the configuration remains intact during routine maintenance inspections. Documentation of the pool or spa's plumbing configuration can be useful when demonstrating compliance during municipal inspections.
