SwimRight Pool service contractors, working in Scottsdale, AZ answer the swim spa question
To enjoy time in the water in your backyard you have options: Swimming pools, hot tubs, spas or swim spas. What is a swim spa? The swimming pool service contractors from SwimRight Pools explain that a swim spa is a water-filled structure that allows you to swim “against” the current because it is equipped with powerful jets that provide a resistance element to your swim routine. Swim spas are typically the size of a lap pool and these are ideal if you want a pool but don’t want to give up your entire backyard space to accommodate one.
There are many options for swim spas in both style and size and they are ideal for families as well as those individuals who want to have a swim spa to get in shape. If you have family who will be using the structure, you will want a larger model. You can use the swim spa without the jets on and it makes an ideal place for the children to play.
Because of their “portable” style, a swim spa can be seated on a deck or be a stand alone structure in another area of the yard. Spend some time considering where you want to place the swim spa before you make a final decision on where to have your pool contractor place it. Heat your swim spa water and it will be like a hot tub but with resistance from the jets. You don’t have to get a swim spa with a heater, and one can be added later, but it could cost you more money to retrofit than to purchase one with a heater at the time of purchase.
What do they cost?
Just as the price of a swimming pool or hot tub varies, the prices of swim spas vary as well. They begin at around $5,000 and increase from there.
