A lot of people ask what is the difference between a swim spa and a swimming pool? Well one of the more apparent differences is the size of each of the two, although you can now get relatively big swimming spas, they will not quite meet up to the size of a full blown swimming pool.

Besides the above there are a few other major differences that can be seen between the two, which we will now take a more in-depth look at, and also approach the benefits that a swim spa can bring.

You can jog against the water current as another part of exercise in a swim spa. Although the swim spa can be used as a fitness platform, there are also a number of other benefits, such as the efficiency and portability that you can get over a full blown swimming pool.

A swim spa lets you swim and and then relax at the spa end when you tired. Most swim spas can be properly adjusted to cater for every style of swimming technique. To exercise properly in swim spa you need sufficient depth. Swim spa can be used as an exercise pool or as a full working hot tub.

The upkeep of a Swim spa can be much less compared to a swimming pool. It is vital to keep your swim spa clean. Swim spas feature filter system and ozone generators which keep the spa clean.

Swim spas can be moved easily. Swim spas are cheap to run. A swim spa can be installed easily.  All you need a concrete base and a direct electrical connection to the swim spa.  You will need a qualified electrician to connect the swim spas

{Having limited space at the back of her house and the hassle of going to a swimming pool each day makes having an Elite swim spa perfect for yourself. You can now train everyday and can relax at the spa end to rejuvenate those tired muscles.}

If you are thinking of buying a swim spa in the near future, you should always get the features that suit you the best. I do feel that a swim spa is a great alternative to buying a swimming pool, and the best thing is that it’s at a fraction of the cost.
