Spools
Pros and Cons
What are the benefits and what are the potential drawbacks of owning a small inground spool?
Limited Spaces
The most obvious benefit is the ability to have a pool where space restrictions would normally not allow for a full-sized option. For this reason, spools are a popular choice for vacation homes and areas with limited space.Â
Reduced Costs
If you‘re on a tight budget, a small pool could be the perfect way to save money without sacrificing quality. Use those extra savings to add water features, buy a pool cover, or set aside funds for maintenance.
Accessories & Features
Spools can be much more than just a small pool. Accessories & features can be added – like water features, fire bowls, slides, and more. The options are virtually endless!
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a spool?

What is the difference between a spool and a cocktail pool?
They’re the same thing. A cocktail pool – a “spool“ (spa + pool) – is the perfect way to maximize your outdoor space. Combining the elements of a spa and a pool, with a surface area usually around 400 square feet or less. Spools are essentially larger spas (or smaller pools), offering the best of both worlds in a compact design.
