Common Questions
Lap Pool FAQs
What size should a lap pool be?
Lap pools are typically 40-75 feet long and 8-12 feet wide. For casual exercise, 40 feet is sufficient. For serious training, 50+ feet is recommended. We custom-design pools to fit your lot and goals.
Can you build a lap pool on a narrow lot?
Absolutely. Lap pools are ideal for narrow lots—their long, narrow shape fits spaces where traditional pools won't. We can build pools as narrow as 8 feet wide.
How deep should a lap pool be?
Lap pools typically range from 3.5 to 5 feet deep. Consistent depth throughout allows for efficient swimming. Deeper options are available for diving or flip turns.
Can I add a spa to my lap pool?
Yes, we can integrate a spa/hot tub at one end of your lap pool, combining exercise functionality with relaxation space.
What about current systems?
For smaller spaces, we can install swim current systems that let you swim in place against a current, providing lap swimming in a smaller footprint.
How much does a lap pool cost?
Lap pools in Ontario typically range from $70,000 to $120,000+ depending on length, features, and finishes. Their efficient design often makes them more cost-effective per square foot than freeform pools.
