Swim Spa versus a Traditional Swimming Pool?

Traditional swimming pools come in basically two varieties – in ground and above ground and most are designed to be used during the summer “pool season” months. 

On the other hand, people who purchase Swim spas (also known as exercise spas, lap pools and aquatic fitness pools) do so because they want to enjoy fun of swimming and exercising 12 months year!

Swim spas are a great alternative to traditional in-ground swimming pools because they usually cost a lot less money and are significantly easier to install.  In addition, the space required to install a swim spa is usually a lot less – perfect for families with smaller yards.

Most swim spas are 12 - 14 feet long.  In terms of installation, the easiest method is to place them on a level foundation.  Since they are self-contained, there is no need to install extra plumbing and they can be filled with a common garden hose. 

How Does a Swim Spa Work?

The concept behind a swim spa is that you are swimming in place against a never-ending current.  The advantage here is that you can experience the health benefits of swimming laps without ever having to turn around like you wood in a traditional pool.

Swim spas typically create an adjustable current at one end to swim against.  The jet current strength can be adjusted to accommodate swimmers at every level, from beginner to seasoned professionals.
