Worth knowing
Worth checking before work starts
A few rules and checks that apply to this kind of work.
Planning for a garden pool
In England, a garden swimming pool follows the planning rules for outbuildings, so it's usually permitted development. At a listed building, it needs planning permission.
Water supplier consent
In England and Wales, a swimming pool or pond over 10,000 litres, filled from the mains and topped up automatically, must be notified to the water supplier before work starts.
Pool room electrics
In England, any new electrical circuit, and any change to circuits in a room containing a swimming pool, is notifiable work under the Building Regulations.
Hot tubs in a business
Hot tubs are a recognised source of infections, including Legionnaires' disease. In Great Britain, HSE guidance on controlling them covers hot tubs used in a business, such as holiday rentals.

How much does it cost to install a hot tub?
It depends on the base it needs, the electrical supply, and how easy it is to get the tub into the garden. Ask each installer whether the price includes the base and the electrical work.
