What Is a Spool Pool

A spool pool is a small swimming pool and a spa or hot tub rolled into one — so, a spool. Versatile and space-saving, spools are a compact solution for backyard fun and relaxation.

Are spools cheaper than pools?

More often than not, a spool will cost less than a full sized in-ground pool and more than a conventional spa. The price to install will also be much less than if you installed a pool/spa combination. When considering the costs of a spool, you’ll also want to factor in how you plan to use it.

Whats the difference between a plunge pool and a spool?

The shorter answer is: it’s really just a small pool. “Spool” is a newer term used for cocktail pools with more traditional spa features, but in many cases, the two terms are essentially interchangeable.
