Operational inspections for a Hoa Community Pool happen often. The community manager in charge of a HOA oversees the inspection and records whatever corrections the inspector will note as community violations for operating a pool. To avoid such unpleasant surprises, here are some tips on how to get prepared for a successful HOA community pool inspection before the date is even set.

Doing your own pre-inspection allows you as a Community Manager to know what needs to be replaced, maintained, or removed from the pool according to the federal laws and inspection rules used in Florida. Important equipment that inspectors look out for in terms of functionality are:

• The safety vacuum release system

This system has different functions in the HOA community pool such as reversing the circulation flow of water, acts as a release at the suction outlet in case of a blockage, and ceases operation of the pump. An inspector will be checking whether the vacuum release system conforms to the ASME/ANSI standards.

• A suction-limiting vent system

    This system has to have an operating tamper-resistant atmospheric opening.

• A pump that has an automatic shut-off system and a gravity drainage system that uses a collector tank and a device that disables the drain.

The Community Manager of a condominium or HOA can confirm that all these equipments are in good working order and the overall pH of water in the pool, which should actually be checked at least twice a day.

Managing a HOA community pool is a whole unit of work that consumes time, energy, and money for an association or HOA. Therefore, considering hiring a professional pool management company can help the board and management to avoid trouble. There will be less stress when a pool inspection is involved in your HOA or condominium, because the pool management takes charge and gives feedback for necessary changes as well as advice on the right equipment for your HOA community pool.
A pool inspection is an opportunity to help the community maintain a well-functioning pool that can cater to all the HOA or condominium residents fully. It is wise for Community Managers in charge to be updated with the latest Florida and federal laws in order to avoid issues of renewal or permits when it comes to using a HOA community pool.
