Jacuzzi® Swim Spa vs. Swimming Pool: Which is Right for You?
Thinking about adding a splash of fun and relaxation to your home with a swimming pool? We'd like to suggest an additional option: Jacuzzi® swim spas!
While both swimming pools and swim spas offer loads of fun and a great way to stay active, they require different needs when it comes to space, budget, and maintenance. Here's a closer look to help you consider what works best for you.
Year-Round Swimming: If you are in a climate like ours in the Midwest, that means having to close your pool in the autumn. Swim spas are designed to withstand the cold outdoors and maintain a comfortable water temperature thanks to their energy-efficient design and insulated covers. Jacuzzi®'s quality materials and cutting-edge technology make temperature regulation budget-friendly, too. Having a swim spa means the fun doesn't have to stop when summer does.
Fun for Families: Because swim spas have an open water space in addition to spa seating, families can enjoy a 2-in-1 play and relaxation experience within the same water space.
Space-Saving: Swim spas are smaller than standard swimming pools and fit perfectly in smaller yards or city living. Their unique design allows them to be installed above ground, partially submerged, or even inside your home. Also consider that since swim spas are designed for steady in-place swimming against a current, they eliminate the need for laps or the need to turn.
Budget Friendly: Their compact size and insulation features make swim spas more cost efficient to heat and maintain a consistent water temperature in comparison to swimming pools. Also, there are much fewer chemical treatments and cleaning processes associated with swim spas.
Clean Water: Jacuzzi® water management systems are designed for ease of use and amazing performance. Sophisticated yet simple, swim spas make it easy to keep water clean and clear.
Exercise + Hydrotherapy: The benefits of a regular hydrotherapy routine from Jacuzzi® in addition to your swimming fitness routine can help with stress, lower back pain, sleeplessness, post workout recovery, and more.
Experience Firsthand: Understanding the benefits of a swim spa over a traditional pool is one thing but experiencing them for yourself makes all the difference. That's why at The Great Escape, we offer special wet test sessions for swim spas at our Joliet, Wilmette, and Algonquin locations. This will help you choose the perfect size and style of swim spa for your space and lifestyle.
Whether it's a swim spa's versatility and ease or a traditional pool's classic appeal, think about what fits your space, budget and how you like to swim. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to your local Great Escape team. We're happy to help you find the perfect fit for your home!
