Swim Spa FAQs
What is a swim spa and how is it different from a pool?
A swim spa is a compact, all-in-one unit that combines the features of a swimming pool and a hot tub, allowing users to swim against a built-in current for exercise while also providing hydrotherapy and relaxation.
Swim spas typically require less space, cost less to install, and can be used year-round, while swimming pools offer more room for swimming and social activities but generally require more space, maintenance, and a larger investment.
Are swim spas good for fitness?
Yes, swim spas provide low-impact resistance training. Swim spas create a continuous current that allows you to swim in place, making them ideal for lap swimming, rehabilitation and aquatic exercise.
How much space do you need for a swim spa?
Swim spas require more space than traditional hot tubs. They are typically 12–20 feet in length. Refer to the specifications for the outer dimensions of the model you are interested in.
Can you use a swim spa year-round in Canada?
Yes, swim spas are designed for all-season use with proper insulation and heating systems.
What maintenance is required?
Swim spas are generally easier to maintain than traditional pools because they hold less water and have built-in filtration systems. Regular maintenance typically includes testing and balancing the water chemistry, cleaning filters, water changes and system checks.
