Environmental Health - Public Pools and Spas

Union County Environmental Health inspects all public pools and spas in the county.  These inspections emphasize safety and disease prevention, as public pools and spas have the potential to spread waterborne diseases amongst swimmers.  During pool and spa inspections the Sanitarian will inspect the pool/spa water chemistry to ensure that a minimum amount of disinfecting agent is in the water, the filtration is operating correctly and that all life saving and safety equipment is in place.

If you are interested in establishing a pool, spa, or wading pool in Union County, contact our office to obtain additional information.
