winter wonderland
Who said swim season is over? You can carry over the all the fun into the winter months!

The living room
Why add a couch when you can add a swim spa? You'll pack plenty into a small footprint, including fitness, fun, and relaxation.

The coverup
No need to store your cover when all you have to do is move your seating to the side!

Indoor campfire
Scandanavian spa meets Muskoka playroom with the addition of a swim spa. Work out, relax or ride the waves with the kids.

Stepping stones
Avoid the cost of in-ground installation by creating a custom surround. Less expensive—and more versatile—than a pool!

The sunset
Sure, you can swim for miles without a single turn. But at this time of day, a soak may be more your style.

Get the skinny
Installations don't have to be fancy to be fantastic—this one combines different surfaces to create visual interest. And since swim spas have a standard width around 7 and a half feet, they're perfect for a long, narrow space.

Pura vida
The writing is on the wall: Live la pura vida! A swim pool lets you do more in a small space: eat, lounge, and have a game of water volleyball!

THE MOSIAC
Indoor swim spas work well with low-maintenance tile. Why not wrap it in mosaic?

THE STEP UP
Elevate your backyard experience by making your swim spa the focus of attention. Three steps and you're in!

BIG IMPACT
Make a big impression in a small space with a swim spa. They're available in sizes that start at 12 feet, offering more fun and fitness than a hot tub.

the lookout
Install your swim spa on your deck to take advantage of the views.

Grey with envy
Tell us that your neighbours won't be jealous. Honestly.
