Everything You Need to Know About Swim Spas

Do you enjoy swimming in a pool, but also love to relax in a hot tub? Deciding which one to purchase might be hard. But who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too?  With swim spas, you can have it all in one tidy package. You can go for a refreshing swim and, afterward, have a relaxing jet massage in heated water.

With Jacuzzi® SwimSpas, sizes can range anywhere from 12 to 19 feet. Making them a great asset for most backyard spaces. For more information like this, read on! We have gathered everything you need to know about swim spas.

How Swim Spas Function

Swim spas are different from pools in that they provide you with a built-in current system. Created by a jet or propulsion system, this gives you a customizable current to swim against. This means that instead of swimming from wall to wall, taking time to stop, push off, and continue swimming, that a man-made current provides you with enough flow to swim against. This results in a swim that’s not only seamless, but also uninterrupted and completed customizable!

The water temperature can also be changed as needed and you can also adjust the jets to choose the type of massage you want! Swim spas can be used 365 days a year due to the built-in heaters and enhanced insulation. This equals an unbeatable, personalized experience – each and every time!

How to Install

Unless you have a cramped or awkward space, the installation of your swim spa should be straightforward.  You can install your spa inside or outside, above-ground or partially- or fully-sunken into the ground.

There are only two musts:

• A solid, flat surface that’s able to withstand the roughly 20,000 pounds your filled spa will weigh once filled with water.

• An electrical hook-up by a certified electrician.

Choosing a location near a water source, such as a garden hose, is also a good idea because it will make it easier to fill.

When working with the experts at Jacuzzi Backyard Living, you can sit back and relax while your swim spa is installed! For more information, contact your nearest showroom today – proudly located in Surrey and Langley!

The Health Benefits

Swim spas offer one of the best full-body workouts around. The right approach to exercise can result in a number of benefits, from improvements in your health and wellness, to a boost in confidence, mental health and more!

Whether you choose to swim stationary laps, do some rowing or resistance training or even go for an underwater jog, you’ll see results that just wouldn’t be possible on land. Not only do you burn more calories, but your joints are protected by the water, meaning your body is less apt to sustain soreness or injury.

Weight loss and maintenance may be one of your main reasons for exercising, but you’ll also notice improved cardiovascular and lung health, toned and strengthened muscles and increased flexibility.
