Spools
A small pool, otherwise known as a “spool,” is a pool that is smaller than a typical pool but flexible enough to enjoy similarly and year-round. Your yard size shouldn’t get in the way of owning a pool. With a spool, you can enjoy the luxuries of a regular pool with the benefits of a spa!
Pros & Cons of Spools
Save Space
One significant advantage is the capability to install a pool in areas where space constraints would typically hinder a full-sized option. Because of this, spools are often favored for vacation homes and locations with limited space availability.
Pros & Cons of Spools
Reduced Costs
If you’re working with a limited budget, opting for a smaller pool could be an ideal strategy without compromising quality. Utilize those additional savings to incorporate water features, invest in a pool cover, or allocate funds for ongoing maintenance.
Pros & Cons of Spools
Lower Maintenance
Due to their smaller size, less debris can make its way into the pool. So if you ever have to clean out leaves or any other accumulated mess, a manual vacuum and scoop net will likely suffice.
Pros & Cons of Spools
Limited Function
While perfect for cooling off or relaxation, small pools don’t allow for activities like lap swimming, water volleyball, or hosting larger pool parties that require more room for guests to spread out.
