The State of Texas Senate Bill 1222, signed by Texas Governor Rick Perry on June 15, 2007 amended Chapter 1305 of the State Occupations Code to require people who install residential appliances [other than those that directly plug into an existing receptacle] in a single-family or multifamily dwelling not exceeding four stories, to obtain a Texas Residential Appliance Installer License. This Bill defines residential appliance as equipment that is installed as a unit and directly connected to an electrical circuit, and performs a specific function. This Bill also requires an applicant for a Texas residential appliance installer license to pass a residential appliance installer examination administered by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR).

The State of Texas House Bill 1973, signed by Texas Governor Rick Perry on June 19, 2009 further amended Section 1305 of the State Occupations Code to include pool-related electrical devices under the definition of residential appliances, thus requiring people who install pool- and spa-related electrical devices to an existing circuit [other than those that directly plug into an existing receptacle], also obtain a Texas Residential Appliance Installer License by passing a residential appliance installer examination.

New Braunfels Pool Company is fully compliant and holds a contractor license with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.
