Title

Safety, urging installation of swimming pool alarms

Description

Existing law does not require a person, enterprise, agency, or entity that sells swimming pools to the general public for use in a one-family or two-family dwelling structure to advise the owner of the structure to install a pool alarm in the swimming pool.

This bill would encourage each person, enterprise, agency, or entity that sells swimming pools to the general public for use in a one-family or two-family dwelling structure to advise the owner of the structure to install a pool alarm in the swimming pool.

This bill would exempt from civil liability a person who sells a swimming pool for residential use even if the buyer of the pool was not encouraged to install a pool alarm.

This bill would provide that each pool alarm purchased for installation in a swimming pool shall be exempt from sales or use tax if the purchaser certifies that the alarm is purchased for installation in a swimming pool.

This bill would require the Department of Revenue to promulgate rules for the enforcement of this act.
