Pool depth and size

Before you select a swimming pool for your home, consider that the size and depth should be determined according to the type of usage the pool will get. A pool that will be used for leisure and relaxation will be different from one that will be used to swim laps.

Choosing pool depth and size

If a pool is going to be used mostly for recreational needs, it does not require great depth. It is adequate to provide a sloped floor which goes from a minimum depth of 36 inches to a maximum of 4 or 5 feet. A recreational pool also does not need to be any particular shape, so you can pick a shape to complement your lot.

Athletic lap swimmers need a long and narrow space with at least 4-5 feet in depth throughout the entire pool to avoid touching the bottom while swimming, and to ensure that turns at the pool’s ends can be performed safely.
