Endless Pool Swim Spa FAQs

Swim Spa

Want more information about Endless Pools® swim spas? Here are some of our FAQs!

 How is the spa series different from the Original Endless Pool?

Our swim spas come as a single-shell acrylic vessel that is pre-plumbed, pre-wired, and does not require assembly. The Original Endless Pool features a modular system that needs to be assembled.

How easy is it to install an Endless Pool Swim Spa?

All Endless Pool Spas come pre-plumbed, pre-wired, and ready to use. All you need to do is fill it with water and hook up the electricity. Should you require help with this or need to prepare the site, our team is happy to help.

Where can I install an Endless Pool Swim Spa?

An Endless Pool Swim Spa can be installed almost anywhere electricity and water are available.

Outdoor spaces are particularly suitable as the spa is placed in position, and you can be swimming that day. 

Indoor installations in pre-existing spaces are possible with a large opening, such as a garage or patio door. 

Alternatively, the spa can be installed in virtually any room with new construction. 

Our spas can be installed above ground, partially in-ground, or fully in-ground.

Can I try a pool before I buy it?

Yes. Give us a call, and we can schedule a test soak.

How much does it cost to operate?

Operating costs will vary by location, but you can expect them to be about the same as for a hot tub ($50-$100 in 2023). 

Prices can be controlled by utilizing the appropriate level of insulation, maintaining an ambient temperature in the pool room, and keeping the pool covered when not in use.

What maintenance is required?

A few minutes each week to test the water and add some water care products to balance the chemistry is all that is required. The spa uses a mineral purifier to reduce the chemicals needed to maintain sparkling clear water.

Also, depending on pool use, the Endless Pool cartridge filter must be replaced every three to six months, and you will drain and fill it at least once a year. 

You can skip it all and have our experts do the work for you.

What about humidity for indoor installations?

Because the Endless Pool is small, it is easy to control humidity by keeping the pool covered when not in use. 

Does the Endless Pool Swim Spa work?

It works! Come in the store to try one for yourself. 

Is it challenging to keep the pool clean?

The Endless Pool uses a mineral purifier to sanitize the pool water, but you must still use a small amount of chlorine to oxidize contaminants. 

How fast is the current?

At top speed, the equivalent swim would be 1:08/100 yards or a mile without turns in 20 minutes. 

How often do I have to change the pool water?

Depending on usage, your Endless Pool needs to be drained and filled at least once a year.

Can I do water aerobics?

Yes, Endless Pool Swim Spas are excellent for aquatic exercise. There is space to exercise and equipment that can be added for aerobic exercise. 

How does the Endless Pool compare to a lap pool?

Personal lap pools are usually longer and may be slightly deeper. An Endless Pool will take up much less space while offering the same benefits.

Is it hard to swim in the Endless Pool Swim Spa?

It usually takes only a few seconds to learn how to swim “against the current.” 

How does the swim current operate?

The swim current is generated by a 16′′ propeller or by jets, depending on your chosen model.

Can I get trapped in the current?

The current of the Endless Pool is confined to the center of the pool, and you must take one step sideways into calm water to get out of the current. The pool has been tested by NSF and is VGB 2008 compliant.
