Difference Between Pools And Spas And How To Make A Choice
When considering the differences between pools and spas one can understand why it is possible to have a swimming pool and a hydro spa or spa-bath.
A swimming pool essentially entails a large unit filled with water. It can be heated and circulated. The spa on the other hand is normally a bit smaller and can range in size from seating two persons to twelve people. It entails jets that spray water at a tremendous speed into the unit where people can lounge. With some resorts offering huge spas people often mistake any type of pool with jets as a spa.
Spas involve hydrotherapy of some sort even if only for relaxation. The water can be cold or heated and the air in water ensures that massages can be applied without hurting the skin. Summer Place is one of the most trusted suppliers of spas in South Africa. Although not a pool supplier in the strict sense of the word, the Olympic spa can certainly go through as one of the pools with jets even though it is a full spa.
Olympic Flush Deck
It is one of the largest spas in the collection suitable for home, spa, and commercial resort settings where you need lounge seating for up to ten persons. Don’t be fooled by its size. Even though it is huge when compared to other spas, it has the size of a plunge pool, but the features of a spa. It can thus fit both categories of pools and spas.
The unit comes with an overflow system to minimize water wastage and spillage. It has been designed specifically to allow for optimal free movement, although it is not the best place to dive. The unit is suitable for upmarket homes and resorts where luxury is never compromised.
The Olympic Flush Deck comes with stainless steel grab bars, several P30 jets, underwater light (optional), and a hard cover (optional).
What to Select
When having to make a choice between pools and spas consider the space available. If the area is too small to fit a proper swimming pool rather install a spa whether you make use of one of the portable types, a flush deck or inground type. Since one cannot really play around in a plunge pool, you don’t benefit as much as when having a spa of the same size that has seating, hydro massage jets and of course, the prestige that goes along with it being a large Jacuzzi.
