Cameras as Pool Entry Protection

Question

Is it the intent of code to include Cameras advertised for the purpose to cover the Parentheses (3) if it carries the ASTM F2208 Certification to satisfy the Accidental entry or "In-Pool Alarm" feature?

Answer Published 08/04/2026 at 6:34 AM

If it meets the ASTM F2208 and complies with the requirements of the section of the code for protection, then it may be permissible. Manufacturer instructions would need to be available for plan review and inspection.
