Swim Spas — in Dallas-Fort Worth.

Swim spas run $20,000 to $45,000 depending on size and features, including delivery and setup. That's roughly a quarter of what an in-ground pool costs in DFW, with none of the permitting timeline.

Yes - that's the whole point. Adjustable swim jets create a current you swim against, so you get a real workout in a 14-21 foot footprint instead of needing a 30+ foot pool. Most models also convert to hot tub mode for recovery afterward.

Better than a pool, actually. Run the water cooler in summer for swimming and heat it up for hot tub mode the rest of the year - one vessel, year-round use, unlike a pool that's only comfortable 5-7 months in DFW.

Most swim spas need a reinforced pad roughly 21 by 8 feet, sized to the unit. They can go above-ground on a patio or deck, or in-ground with a surround - both are common in DFW backyards. We walk your space before delivery to confirm the best setup.

About the same as a hot tub - weekly water testing, periodic filter cleaning, and a cover to keep debris out. It's dramatically less than pool maintenance since there's far less water volume and no seasonal opening or closing.
