There are too much unknown at this point due to easement etc and I'm not liking the chance of things to go wrong. I don't want to jeopardize the house for the pool that only I use (hubby is not a fan of swimming).
Maybe next time in the next house. It will be better as now I know what to look for.
In the meantime, a swim spa research will be in order :)
Two products in mind:
- Fast Lane Swim Spa
- Likes:
- Propeller type machine that generates better swimming current and supposedly one of the best in the market of swim spa
- Ozone filtration system, i.e. non-chlorinated swim
- Additional options on underwater treadmill for other type of exercises
- Dislikes:
- Expensive! about the same price as a pool
- More difficult to integrate with the garden
Example how it might look like (I won't choose the double spa one though) |
Another example |
- Oasis Platinum Swim Spa
- Likes:
- About half the price of Fastlane
- Better spa options (extra massage jets!!)
- Dislikes:
- Jet swimming system. Albeit better system than the old traditional jet, but I don't like the idea water being thrown to your face.
- Still expensive
- Still difficult to integrate with garden
Other than that, I need to arrange an appointment to try them out and research on decking. The decking would be crucial to make the place great
