Swim spa and mini pool technology

A 16-speed belt-driven turbine that swims like open water, river jets for training and recovery, and mini pools built to sit flush with the garden.

Elite turbine current

Pro models carry a fully adjustable 16-speed belt-driven turbine. Instead of pushing water through a jet, it draws a wide, laminar current across the swim lane with no bubbles, no splash-back and no turbulence to fight.

At the top of its range the current holds a triathlete at race pace. At the bottom it is gentle enough for rehabilitation. Belt drive keeps it quiet, and the motor is sized for efficiency rather than noise.

River-jet propulsion

Standard swim spa models use high-pressure river jets to create the current. They are strong enough for a proper swim and adjustable enough for aquatic aerobics, and because they are jets they double as deep-tissue massage for the cool-down after.

If your priority is a swim and a soak, river jets do both well. If you swim seriously, the turbine is the reason to choose a Pro.

Platinum tether mount

An integrated mounting point takes an ergonomic harness and cord for stationary swimming. Tethered, you hold position without adjusting to the current, which is the way most coaches teach stroke technique and the way most people train in a confined lane.

The harness and tether are sold separately, and the mount is on every swim spa and swim-capable mini pool.

Speed control and silent flow

The turbine interface on the 5 inch touchscreen steps through sixteen speeds, so you can set an exact pace and repeat it session after session, or build intervals. The system runs with minimal vibration, which matters when the spa sits close to the house.

Mini pool design

Mini pools are designed to sit flush with the ground rather than stand above it. Low-profile contours and clean lines let landscapers treat the pool as part of the garden, and a full-scale pool experience fits into a space a conventional pool never would.

The Atlas, Artemis, Chronos and Hades families have a maintenance access hatch in the top rim, so the equipment bay is serviced from above once the pool is set into a deck or paving. That is the detail to check before you commit to a sunken installation.

Common questions

A swim spa is a self-contained unit with a swim lane and, usually, a hot tub seating area, designed to stand above ground or partially sunk. A mini pool is designed to be set flush into the garden, with the same turbine or jet options and a maintenance hatch for access from above.

Yes. The turbine on Pro models generates a wide, smooth current strong enough for race-pace training. River-jet models suit steady swimming and aquatic exercise.

No. Every model runs on a single-phase supply, typically 40 amp. Three-phase is supported where it is available. The exact requirement is on each product page.
