FSPA Pushes To Preserve and Codify Single Wire Bonding Method in Florida

On this episode of the Pool Magazine Podcast, host Joe Trusty welcomes back frequent guest Dallas Thiesen, Chief Government Relations Officer for the Florida Swimming Pool Association (FSPA), to discuss a major regulatory victory that will shape pool construction across the state heading into 2026.

Fresh off a unanimous decision by the Florida Building Commission, FSPA successfully secured approval to preserve and formally codify the long-standing #8 AWG single-wire loop bonding method within the upcoming 2026 Florida Building Code. The decision represents a significant win not only for Florida pool professionals, but also for homeowners who ultimately benefit from consistent, safe, and cost-effective construction standards. Listen in as Thiesen breaks down what was actually voted on and what was truly at stake had the proposal failed.
