The bill amends section 489.105 of the Florida Statutes to revise the definitions of "commercial pool/spa contractor," "residential pool/spa contractor," and "swimming pool/spa servicing contractor." Key changes include expanding the scope of work for commercial pool/spa contractors to encompass all phases of construction, repair, renovation, and servicing of various water features, including swimming pools, spas, and splash pads. The bill also clarifies that the scope of work for residential pool/spa contractors is similar to that of commercial contractors but excludes the construction of new commercial facilities.

Additionally, the bill specifies that swimming pool/spa servicing contractors will have a broader scope of work that includes the installation, repair, and replacement of equipment, as well as various maintenance tasks. Notably, the bill removes certain requirements for licensure related to water treatment and cleaning, stating that such activities do not require a license unless they involve construction, modification, or replacement of equipment. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
