During a pool inspection, American Home Inspection Services certified inspectors carefully examine your pool and spa visually and mechanically. The visual inspection includes assessing pool equipment, electrical supply (including lighting), and safety concerns around the pool and pool deck. The mechanical inspection focuses on monitoring essential equipment while it runs.

Some common components examined during a pool and spa inspection include the skimmer, filter, pool covers, heater (if lit), venting, pressure gauge, supply lines, blower, time-based controls, corrosion in saltwater pools, and compliance with anti-drowning safety measures outlined by state and local codes.

If you’re buying a property with a pool, understanding its condition is essential. Some problems may be minor, while others can lead to more significant issues.
