because you can sit down on the side wall and
then swing your legs into the pool. This is especially
good for those with limited mobility.
•
A raised floor can be an inexpensive way to give a partly in-ground appearance.
•
Allows for year-round swimming in any weather.
• If you choose partial excavation, it costs
less than a full excavation.
• Heating
costs are lower than for outdoor pools. |
• Excavation or a raised floor is required. Excavation adds to the cost and complexity of your installation.
• If the floor is not already concrete, a concrete pad may need to be poured.
• If you are raising the floor, your room will need a somewhat higher ceiling. |
