All inlets located in pool walls shall be spaced not more than twenty feet on center around the pool perimeter. When inlets are located in the pool bottom, the number of inlets and their location shall be designed to ensure the proper distribution of filtered water. The minimum number of bottom inlets shall be determined by dividing the perimeter of the pool, in feet, by twenty. All wall inlets, except makeup water inlets and wading pool inlets shall be at least fifteen inches below the operating water level of the pool, except for prefabricated gutters with forty-five degree angle inlets in the bottom. Each inlet shall be provided with a means of adjusting flow, through a range of at least fifty percent of its design capacity. Inlet flow controls shall be readily accessible.
