A swim spa is a better alternative to a swimming pool – it’s low-maintenance and uses less water and energy, including your own. What’s more, you can enjoy it all year round in many different ways. Whether it’s an active swim workout against the current, your little ones’ first attempts at swimming, or an evening glass of fine wine by the massage jets on the swim spa steps.
How much water does a swim spa use?
A swim spa requires as little as 10 m³. USSPA has been addressing the issue of water consumption right from the very start of swim spa development. It is therefore designed to provide ample space for swimming whilst minimising the volume of water required. A thermal cover is included as standard with the swim spa; in addition to its insulating properties, it also prevents water evaporation, thereby reducing water consumption. Thanks to minimal water loss, it is not necessary to keep the swim spa permanently connected to the water supply or to top it up continuously.
How much maintenance does a swim spa require?
The thermal cover prevents mechanical debris and UV radiation from entering the water. USSPA swim spas are also equipped with revolutionary technologies that automatically control filtration and ozonation according to the size of the swim spa and the intensity of its use, with the aim of ensuring it remains clean. OzonePure ozonisation destroys microorganisms, thereby reducing the need for chemical maintenance. As a result, the swim spa requires less time, fewer chemicals and less effort to keep the water perfectly clean.
Tip
Did you know that there are soaps specially developed for users of swimming pools and swim spas, which, when used before swimming, help to make pool water maintenance easier?
Spaculture Before makes it easier for you to look after the water in your swimming pool.
This functional shower gel thoroughly cleanses the skin of creams, deodorants, make-up and sweat before you go for a swim, thereby preventing unnecessary contamination of the pool water. It has a special formula that does not disrupt the balance of the pool water – particularly its pH level – and does not cause foaming or cloudiness. This significantly simplifies pool water maintenance, saving you both time and money.
Spaculture After ensures that your skin won’t smell of chlorine after swimming.
This functional post-swim shower cream actively eliminates the unpleasant smell of chlorine and, thanks to four nourishing oils, helps to moisturise your skin after prolonged exposure to chemically treated water, relieving any unpleasant tightness. A refreshing blend of Verbena and Cardamom scents will enhance your active relaxation in the pool.
Spaculture functional soaps are made in the Czech Republic, dermatologically tested, paraben- and microplastic-free, and gentle on sensitive skin and children.
How energy-intensive is a swim spa?
The energy-efficient operation of a swim spa is ensured by a comprehensive insulation system, a key component of which is the thermal cover, which insulates the water surface. Smart technologies optimise the swim spa’s operation according to your swimming routine, thereby maximising energy efficiency. You can therefore enjoy swimming in your swim spa all year round at a cost comparable to that of running a standard swimming pool in the summer.
How is the cover for a swim spa designed?
A thermal cover comes as standard with a swim spa, meaning you no longer need to worry about additional roofing. To make the thermal cover easy to use, USSPA offers several original, patented solutions, such as mechanical and automatic thermal covers that can be opened and closed at the touch of a button. To ensure your swim spa blends perfectly with its surroundings and the design of your home, you can choose from a wide range of cover materials – from marine-grade vinyl, through to elegant Teflon-coated fabrics, right up to a sheet metal surface painted in any shade of the customer’s choice.

In addition to the benefits already mentioned, the thermal cover also serves a safety function. It can support the weight of a child as well as four-legged pets, thereby addressing one of the key problems with open-air pools – the risk of falling into the water and drowning. Furthermore, the thermal cover is fitted with a safety lock to prevent unauthorised tampering.
Thanks to the swim spa’s compact dimensions, it can even be installed in a smaller garden. The option of installing an above-ground swim spa means you can enjoy a swim even on the terrace of a flat in the city centre.
