It may not require a permit, but it would still need to conform to barrier restrictions under Appendix G of the 2003 IRC.
Just my humble opinion.

| had a new discussion where it was pointed out that the UCC specifically mentions pools so the temporary structure idea is out the window. If the State specifically mentions pools in the UCC for permitting then I cannot overlook it as a temporary structure. This is getting complicated as Pennsylvania spins the International Codes to suit. |

Yes, UCC specifically includes Chapter 41 and Appendix G of the 2003 International Residential Code as included in the UCC and other references regarding pools and spas.
Section 403.26 of the Uniform Construction Code states:
§ 403.26. Swimming pools.
(a) A swimming pool, hot tub and spa which is accessory to a one- or two-family dwelling shall comply with all of the following:
(1) Chapter 41 of the "International Residential Code."
(2) Appendix G of the "International Residential Code."
(3) Section 2406.2, paragraph 9 of the International Building Code (glazing in walls and fences enclosing indoor and outdoor swimming pools, hot tubs and spas).
(4) Section 3109.4 of the "International Building Code (residential swimming pool enclosures).
(b) A swimming pool that is not accessory to a one- or two-family dwelling shall comply with this chapter, the "American National Standards for Public Pools" issued by ANSI and NSPI (ANSI/NSPI-1 1991) and the Public Bathing Law (35 P. S. §§ 672-680d).
(c) A hot tub or spa that is not accessory to a one- or two-family dwelling shall comply with this chapter and the "American National Standard for Public Spas" issued by ANSI and NSPI (ANSI/NSPI-2 1999).

We had an interesting question the other day regarding the requirements for a swimming pool in a residential gated community.
Is a swimming pool in a "gated community" reviewed under the swimming pool requirements of the IRC or the IBC? |

| If it accessory to an R-3 it would be the IRC. A public pool would be the IBC but the requirements areretty much the same. |

| Public pools must also meet Accessibility Requirement - a lift is required or a variance from the State. |
