Placement
Pools near the house foundation
A pool dug close to the house can affect the foundation. Chandler requires engineering when it is close.
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
The manual says an engineered surcharge design is required for in ground pools built closer than 5 feet to a building foundation.
Other placement limits
- Pools shall not occupy any front yard.
- A pool or cool decking cannot cross a property line.
- All easements must be cleared by the utility companies before construction.
