For training related to the proper maintenance, repair and service of swimming pool equipment- including swimming pool pumps, underwater lights and swimming pool heaters please attend the many training events offered by the manufacturers of this equipment. It is not intended to teach how to repair or service swimming pool electrical equipment. This workshop was created to help service people pass the exam.
In 2009, Governor Rick Perry signed HB 1973- allowing swimming pool service people to become licensed to service and maintain swimming pool and spa electrical equipment.Ĭurrently, the Texas Residential Appliance Installer License (often called the RAIL or TRAIL license) is required for all pool and spa service people that are replacing or repairing swimming pool and spa electrical equipment in Texas. In 2007, TDLR-Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation organized stings targeting pool and spa service people working on pumps, heaters and lights.
In 2003, Texas adopted the NEC- National Electrical Code in such a way that a licensed electrician is required for all non-exempt electrical work.
