What is a swim spa?

A swim spa is a type of hot tub that also has a built-in current that allows you to swim against it, giving you the experience of swimming laps in a pool. Swim spas are usually larger than traditional hot tubs and can range in size from 12 to 20 feet in length. They can be used for both relaxation and exercise, as the current provides resistance for swimming or water aerobics.

Swim spas typically have seating areas around the perimeter, similar to a hot tub, as well as features such as jets for hydrotherapy massage. They are often used in both residential and commercial settings, such as gyms or rehabilitation facilities.

Some benefits of swim spas include their compact size compared to a traditional pool, making them a good option for those with limited space. They are also more energy-efficient than a full-sized pool and can be used year-round, as they are equipped with heating systems. Additionally, the adjustable current in a swim spa allows for a customizable workout experience for users of all fitness levels.
