Virginia Graeme Baker Act FAQ's:

A typical swimming pool needs seven major components:
- A basin
- A motorized pump
- A water filter
- A chemical feeder
- Drains
- Returns
- PVC plastic plumbing connecting all of these elements
The basic idea is to pump water in a continual cycle, from the pool
through the filtering and chemical treatment systems and back to the
pool again. In this way, the pumping system keeps the water in the
pool relatively free of dirt, debris and
bacteria. Some pools also
include heaters in the mix, in order to keep the water at a certain
temperature.
