7 Reasons Swim Spas Are Better Than Swimming Pools
We’ll just come right out and say it -Swim Spas are better than swimming pools. Here are our top 7 reasons why you should be shopping for a Swim Spa instead of seeking a pool contractor:
Size:
Indoors:
Want to swim inside? Designing a room around a Swim Spa, or retrofitting a Swim Spa in an existing room is a lot more affordable and certainly more feasible. If you have the room in your budget, you could add a sauna and other therapeutic equipment to the space!
Outdoors:
Got a cramped backyard space? A Swim Spa is the obvious choice. Got plenty of room for a pool? Why limit that precious piece of real estate by covering the majority of it with a pool? A Swim Spa will provide you with the exercise capabilities of a pool, the hydrotherapy benefits of a hot tub, and you’ll retain the rest of your backyard. Don’t you want space for a garden? Don’t you need room for your kids and pets to run around?
Hydrotherapy:
Meaning the soothing water jet massage and associated health benefits that you absorb sitting in a really nice hot tub. Our Master Spas Swim Spas feature all of the latest technology you’d expect in a premium hot tub. This means that you can swim or perform water aerobics vigorously and then slide back into the hot tub seats for a nice recovery massage without even leaving the water!
Affordable Ambiance:
Water features, Accent lighting, and Bluetooth compatible, premium sound systems are available on our Master Spas Swim Spas - Built-in.
Maintenance:
Maintaining a pool takes time and money. If you’re inclined to do it yourself, you better stay with it and you better invest in some decent equipment. If you choose to hire a pool service professional to maintain your pool you’ll have to find someone who’s good, reasonably priced, and shows up!Maintaining Master Spas Swim Spas is as easy as it gets. With Master Spas EcoPur® Filtration and Mast3rPur™Water Management, there isn’t much you need to do to maintain optimal water balance.
Exercise Capabilities:
Unless you’re building a lap style pool, you won’t get a very good swim workout in your backyard swimming pool - you’ll be making more turns than strokes! You likely don’t have room for an Olympic size swimming pool and even if you did, it wouldn’t be aesthetically pleasing in your yard.In a Swim Spa, you can practice your swim strokes without interruption for as long as you desire.Not big on swimming? Perform a variety of other aerobic workouts in a Swim Spa designed to work in conjunction with underwater treadmills, simulated rowing equipment, etc.
Year-round Use:
Not many of us feel motivated to jump in the pool during the winter months. Not without a larger heating expenditure - or a wetsuit! Swim Spas are comfortable and inviting all year round both for workouts and leisurely soaks. Swim Spas are maintained at a constant temperature of your choosing. It actually costs you less to maintain your desired temperature than it does to heat the unit before every use, which is a good segway into our 7th top reason why you should purchase a swim spa instead of a swimming pool...
Efficiency:
Master Spas Icynene Insulation System will prevent mold and mildew and retain its insulation value as long as you own your spa. Icynene foam is superior to urethane in performance and in longevity. These tightly constructed, state of the art Swim Spas are undoubtedly less expensive to fill, heat, and maintain than any swimming pool.
