Metal patio covers and bonding
Metal near water has to be tied into the pool's bonding.
This is an independent referral guide. It connects homeowners with independent providers and may receive compensation. It is not a licensed contractor and it does not do the work.
The rule
Chandler's manual says metal patio covers within 5 feet of a swimming pool shall be bonded to the pool equipotential bonding.
Plan it
If you add a cover later, the bonding may be harder to reach. Plan covers with the pool.
