Quick size picker
Pick the size that best matches your space and how you want to use the pool.
Choose based on how you’ll use it
The right size depends more on usage than the number on the page.
Lounging and kids play
Shorter lengths work great, prioritize entry options and open shallow space.
Swimming for exercise
Longer lengths feel better, 16’×36’ and up gives more comfortable swim room.
Hosting and entertaining
More surface area means more room for guests, seating, and features.
What to measure before choosing a size
A few quick checks can save a lot of headaches later.
Measure your open space and keep room for access, setbacks, and your preferred layout.
Plan for comfortable traffic flow, lounging space, and any future upgrades you might want.
Leave room for the pump, filter, and optional systems like salt or automation.
Take note of fences, trees, utilities, and any grade changes that impact your planning.
