Lap Pool

What is a lap pool?

Lap pool: choosing the type of construction

As with ‘classic’ pools, there are different solutions for realising your lap pool:

The lap pool kit

Thanks to its modular panel solution, the lap pool in kit form offers you the possibility of building it yourself. That way, you save on labour costs while still enjoying a beautiful pool in your garden.

The shell lap pool

Made of polyester, the shell lap pool offers the same characteristics as a so-called classic shell pool. Made from a predefined mould and delivered in one piece, it requires professional installation.

The concrete lap pool

Built entirely in situ, this type of construction is custom-built (in poured, sprayed or reinforced concrete). Installation and shaping must be done by a professional.

How much does a lap pool cost?

Thanks to corrugated-steel-panel patented technology, Waterair Swimming Pools’ lap pools have many advantages:

Cutsomising your lap pool

The ability to customise your pool is one of the many benefits of choosing a lap pool in kit form from Waterair Swimming Pools. Whether you want to increase your physical exertion or your comfort, you will find a range of suitable equipment.

There’s nothing like steps for relaxing

After a time of exertion, enjoy a moment of relaxation, and for that, what better place than the pool steps? Add some massage jets and your relaxation area is ready. In terms of your choice of steps, they can be either internal, integrated with the shape of the pool to retain the lap pool’s slender shape, or exterior, which will enable you to retain a maximum swimming length and to choose where you install them – so you can enjoy the sunset, for example.

For swimming

Vary your exercises, enjoy the counter-current system and a diving board. A lap pool provides the perfect length for all types of water workouts.

Maintaining and securing your lap pool

Having a lap pool does not necessarily mean you have a large volume of water to treat. Generally speaking, a shallow lap pool can have a similar volume to a so-called ‘classic’ swimming pool. The quantity of water-treatment products you’ll need to use therefore remains moderate.

There are also several solutions for ensuring pool safety:

• An alarm: This is the only active safety measure that will warn you if a weight exceeding 6 kg (13 lb) falls into the pool. It both looks good and is easy to use. Be warned, however, that the alarm is triggered only when the child is in the water, so you need to act quickly.
• An enclosure: Once closed, the enclosure enables you to completely secure your pool, but it does more than that. In fact, it has four significant advantages: it provides security; it heats the pool water by more than 9°C in an environmentally friendly way; it simplifies pool maintenance by preventing external pollution and thus it enables you to save on water-treatment products.
