With all of the amazing features that pools have today, the one thing missing from most is the actual ability to swim. Most pools are too short for effective lap swimming. With current trends emphasizing physical health and wellness through aging, swimming provides an excellent avenue to maintain fitness, no matter your age or situation. For those who already have a pool, a pump can be added to your pool costing thousands of dollars. For those considering a new pool, they are discouraged by the limitations of having such a small pool, or “swim spa”.
For just a few hundred dollars, on a new pool construction, swim jets can be added, using existing pumps. The force of water is great enough to swim or walk in place. This becomes an amazing solution for triathletes and those wanting to participate in aqua therapy or water aerobics in the comfort of their own back yard, for a fraction of the cost.
